USS Ozette (ID-3985) was the proposed United States Navy designation of a cargo ship that was never commissioned into U.S. Navy service.

SS Ozette was built for the United States Shipping Board by the Seattle-North Pacific Shipbuilding Company at Seattle, Washington, and launched on 28 September 1918. The Shipping Board transferred her directly to the U.S. Navy '​s Naval Overseas Transportation Service and the Navy assigned her the identification number (Id. No.) 3985, but she was never commissioned into U.S. Navy service.
