LST-306

USS LST-306 was a tank landing ship built for the United States Navy during World War II. Commissioned in 1943, LST-306 participated in several key amphibious operations, including the Allied invasion of Sicily (Operation Husky) and the Salerno landings in Italy. The vessel also took part in the Normandy invasion (D-Day) in June 1944, delivering troops, vehicles, and equipment to the beaches under enemy fire. After the war, LST-306 was decommissioned in 1946 and later struck from the Naval Vessel Register.
