Following the war, she performed occupation duty in the Far East until early December 1945. ''LST-826'' was one of several ships grounded at Okinawa as a result of Typhoon ''Louise'' on 9 October 1945. In November 1945 the CNO directed that the hulk be sunk or destroyed, but this was not done and she became one of around 15 wrecks that were finally sold in two batches in May and November 1947 by the State Department's Foreign Liquidations Commission. ''LST-826'' and , along with , three floating docks and some smaller craft, were included in the May batch, and were sold to the Oklahoma-Philippines Co. for scrapping. ''LST-826'' earned one battle star for World War II service. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「USS LST-826」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
