USS LST-941 was an LST-542-class tank landing ship in the United States Navy. Like many of her class, she was not named and is properly referred to by her hull designation.

Construction

LST-941 was laid down on 28 July 1944, at Hingham, Massachusetts, by the Bethlehem-Hingham Shipyard; launched on 30 August 1944; sponsored by Mrs. Roland Gariepy; and commissioned on 22 September 1944.[3][2]

Service history

During World War II LST-941 was assigned to the Asiatic-Pacific theater and participated in the Palawan Island landings in March 1945, the Visayan Island landings in March and April 1945,[3] and the Labuan Island landing, Brunei Bay, in June 1945.[2]

Following the war, she performed occupation duty in the Far East until 25 October 1945.[3] In December 1945, Lieutenant Paul W. Phillips, USNR, took command of the ship.[2] LST-941 returned to the United States and was decommissioned on 1 May 1946, and struck from the Navy list on 3 July, that same year. On 28 March 1947, she was sold to Francis R. Stolz for operation.[3]

Awards

LST-941 earned two battle stars for World War II service.[3]
