USS Kingman (APB-47)
U.S.S. Kingman (APB-17) was a Self-propelled Barracks Ship in service with the United States Navy during World War II, and briefly post-war. Laid down as ''LST-1113'', she was then reclassified AKS-18 and named ''Kingman'' on 8 December 1944. She was then again reclassifled APB-47 on 3 March 1945, and launched on 17 April 1945 by Missouri Valley Bridge & Iron Co., sponsored by Mrs. K. B. Bragg. ''Kingman'' shortly after, sailed to be fitted out in New Orleans, Louisiana, and was commissioned on 27 June 1945, with Lt. R. J. Figaro in command.
==Ship History==
After her shakedown cruise in the Gulf of Mexico, ''Kingman'' cleared Gulfport, Mississippi, and steamed westward through the Panama Canal. She arrived at Pearl Harbor on 2 September, the day of Japan's historic surrender. Five days later the barracks ship sailed for the Far East, arriving at Sasebo, Japan on 8 October via Eniwetok and Guam. She remained in Japanese ports for 5 months, before loading America-bound troops and departing Sasebo on 16 March 1946.
''Kingman'' arrived at San Diego, California on 29 April and remained there until she was decommissioned on 15 January 1947. She was assigned to the Pacific Reserve Fleet shortly after her decommissioning. She was struck from the Naval Register on 1 October 1977, after 30 years of being laid up, and was sold for scrapping, on 19 November 1980, to Levin Metals Corp. (PD-X-1034 of 6 October 1980) for $450,000.00, as part of a two ship group sale. She was scrapped in 1980.
During World War II, USS Kingman (APB-47) was assigned to the Asiatic-Pacific Theater.
