USS Menifee (APA-202)

USS Menifee (APA-202) was a Haskell-class attack transport commissioned by the United States Navy in October 1944. During World War II, she played a crucial role in the Pacific Theater, notably participating in the Okinawa campaign by landing troops and equipment under heavy enemy fire in April 1945. Following the war, Menifee assisted in occupation duties in Japan and China and helped transport returning veterans during Operation Magic Carpet. The ship was decommissioned in 1947 and later struck from the Naval Vessel Register in 1968.
