USS San Bernardino County

USS San Bernardino County (LST–1110) was an LST-542-class tank landing ship built for the United States Navy during World War II.

From Oahu, she carried her cargo on to the Marianas; offloaded the piles and asphalt at Guam; took on gasoline drums at Saipan; and, on 20 June, sailed for Okinawa.

She offloaded her cargo onto the Hagushi beaches and embarked elements of the 6th Marines between 26 June and 10 July; then sailed back to Guam, where she discharged her passengers.

The LST then shifted to San Pedro Bay, whence she proceeded to Lingayen Gulf to join Amphibious Group 8 to participate in the occupation of eastern Honshū.

Departing Luzon on 26 September, LST-1110 disembarked elements of the 8th Field Artillery, 25th Division, I Army Corps, at Nagoya on 25 and 26 October; then got underway to return to Lingayen Gulf.

She departed Port Hueneme on 25 June; proceeded to San Francisco, whence she continued north, with Summit County (LST-1146), to Seattle and Alaskan points.

Departing San Diego on the 20th, she arrived at Yokosuka, Japan on 22 October and began six months of cargo operations and training exercises in Japanese and Korean waters.

In the fierce fire of the Communist army, thanks to the cooperation of all officers and soldiers of the ship, the excellent craftsmanship, shuttle and replenishment, successfully fulfilled the mission.
