4 twin 40mm AA radar-directed gun mounts USS Butte (APA-68) was a Gilliam-class attack transport serving in the United States Navy from 1944 to 1946.

En route to the Philippines, Butte made stops of varying duration at Pearl Harbor, Eniwetok, Saipan, Ulithi, and in the Palau Islands.

She arrived at Leyte on 21 February and began five weeks of training in preparation for the amphibious assault on Okinawa in the Ryukyu Islands.

Butte made an overnight stop at Pearl Harbor on 11 June and then resumed her voyage to the west coast.

The ship returned to Okinawa on 18 September towing another transport crippled by a floating mine in the East China Sea.

After 11 days at Okinawa, Butte shaped a course for northern China on 26 September carrying another complement of occupation troops.

Butte arrived in the United States on 18 December 1945 and, after repairs, was ordered to Pearl Harbor on 23 February 1946 for assignment to JTF 1.

She survived the atomic bomb tests and was retained for structural and radiation study at Kwajalein until 12 May 1948 when she was disposed of by sinking.
