USS Juneau (LPD-10) was an Austin-class amphibious transport dock commissioned into the United States Navy in 1969. Designed to transport and land Marines, equipment, and supplies, Juneau participated in several major operations, including the Vietnam War and Operation Desert Storm. The ship also supported humanitarian missions, such as disaster relief in the Philippines and tsunami aid in Indonesia. After nearly 40 years of service, USS Juneau was decommissioned in 2008.
