USS LST-916

USS LST-916 was a tank landing ship of the LST-542 class built for the United States Navy during World War II. Commissioned in 1944, LST-916 participated in the Asiatic-Pacific Theater, supporting critical amphibious operations, including the Leyte and Okinawa campaigns. The ship played a vital role in transporting troops, vehicles, and supplies directly onto hostile shores, contributing significantly to Allied successes in the Pacific. After the war, LST-916 was decommissioned in 1946 and later sold, marking the end of her distinguished naval service.
