HMAS Manoora (F48)
HMAS ''Manoora'' was a passenger liner that served in the Royal Australian Navy (RAN) during World War II. Built in Scotland in 1935 for the Cairns to Fremantle coastal passenger run for the Adelaide Steamship Company. She was requisitioned by the RAN for naval service in 1939. ''Manoora'' was initially converted into an armed merchant cruiser (AMC), operating primarily in Australian, New Guinea, and Pacific waters, with deployments to Singapore and the Bay of Bengal.
In 1942, the ship was converted into the RAN's first landing ship, infantry (LSI). After extensive training, ''Manoora'' was involved in most of the Allied amphibious operations in the Pacific during 1944 and 1945. After the war's end, the ship was used to transport occupation forces and refugees until 1947, when she was decommissioned from naval service and returned to the Adelaide Steamship Company. ''Manoora'' continued to operate in Australian waters until 1961, when she was sold to an Indonesian company and renamed ''Albulombo''. The ship was sold for scrap in 1972.
