USS Lincoln County (LST-898) was an LST-542-class tank landing ship built for the United States Navy during World War II.

Departing Saipan on 12 April she arrived Chimu Wan, Okinawa, and discharged cargo on this strategic base which lay at the gateway to Japan.

LST-898 returned to Navy control on 1 June 1950 and for the next three months performed cargo operations for Military Sea Transportation Service (MSTS) in Japan and Korea.

LST-898 recommissioned on 28 August 1950, loaded troops and vehicles at Kobe, Japan, for the Inchon invasion, then sailed 10 September for the west coast of Korea.

After discharging troops and cargo, she provided emergency medical care for wounded Marines, then supported assault forces by shelling enemy positions ashore.

From 1955 to 1960, she sailed for three tours with the 7th Fleet, made one cruise to the frigid Arctic to supply "DEW Line" installations, and participated in amphibious exercises off the west coast and Hawaii.

After serving the Navy during two wars besides sailing on many tours with the 7th Fleet to prevent incidents from enlarging into new conflicts, Lincoln County decommissioned on 24 March 1961.
