USS Henry County (LST-824) was an LST-542-class tank landing ship built for the United States Navy during World War II.

After refresher training, Henry County departed the West Coast on 19 March 1960 for the Far East, arriving Yokosuka two weeks later.

During the next four months she transported supplies, performed training exercises with U.S. Marines, and engaged in joint operations with Korean forces before returning to Long Beach on 19 August.

Following 20 months of operations along the West Coast, Henry County sailed for the mid-Pacific in April 1962 then performed transport and amphibious duties out of Hawaii.

Since the tests were considered vital to the nation's security, the Navy demonstrated her ability once again to keep pace with the advances of technology developed to maintain peace through strength.
