Terrebonne Parish-class tank landing ship

The Terrebonne Parish class was a group of fifteen tank landing ships built for the United States Navy in the early 1950s, and later sold to the navies of Spain, Greece, Peru, Venezuela and Turkey. They were authorized in the 1950s and divided among three yards, Bath Iron Works, Ingalls Shipbuilding and Christy Shipbuilding, each of which built a batch of five between 1952 and 1954. Several of the ships served in the Vietnam War. All of them left United States service between 1970 and 1973, and many were transferred abroad, where some remained in use until the mid-2010s. Washtenaw County went into commercial service and was later abandoned on the Columbia River, where efforts to turn the hulk into a museum were still under way in 2021. She is also the only ship of the class converted into a minesweeper.
