USS Blanco County (LST-344) was a tank landing ship of the United States Navy, commissioned in 1943 during World War II. She participated in several major amphibious operations, including the Allied invasions of Sicily, Salerno, and Normandy, where she played a crucial role in delivering troops, vehicles, and supplies to contested beaches under fire. After the war, LST-344 was involved in occupation duties in Europe before returning to the United States. The ship was decommissioned in 1946 and later transferred to Greece, where she served under a different name before being retired from service.
