She received her official commissioning on October 11, 1944, at Astoria, Oregon. During World War II she was in a Transport Squadron operating in the Pacific, taking part in the Iwo Jima and Okinawa invasions. She carried troops of the First Cavalry Division to Yokohama and was present in Tokyo Bay at the time of the Japanese surrender. The LENAWEE went into mothballs after the War and remained so until 1950 and the outbreak of the Korean conflict. While operating in the Korean area she aided in the major evacuation of North Korean partisans to islands below the 38th parallel. During the signing of the final Korean truce on 28 July 1953, the LENAWEE was the station ship in Inchon Harbor, Korea. In February of 1955 she took part in the evacuation of Chinese Nationalist refugees from the Tachen Island off the China coast. On her first trip to Keelung, Formosa, she carried approximately 3800 civilians and returned to the islands for another load consisting of 1200 troops. Since then, the LENAWEE has completed five tours of duty in the Western Pacific and has taken part in numerous Amphibious exercises. On this tour she participated in tliree major operations.

TRAINING - ' OPERATIONS A portrait of transition — From shipboard training to practical experience OPERATION SILVERSWORD An abandoned boat reflects of peril and of valuable experience gained This is Operation SILVER- SWORD, the first in our series of operations. SILVERSWORD is an exercise involving; a nipht surface and helicopter assauh of Maui Prov- ince, Hawaii. It is through training like this that we realize tlie fulfill- ment of the LENAWEE ' S mission. KOREA Korea was the setting for our next operatioii. Temple Bell was a cold weather amphibious exercise designed to provide training in the conduct of amphibious surface assault under con- ditions of extreme cold and snow. The entii ' e crew was given cold weather preparation lectures. Special protec- tive clodiing was issued to those who would be exposed for long periods of time. PHILIPPINES The Philippines provided a sharp contrast in setting to that of Korea. Tulungan was a SEATO exercise or- ganized to train the Armed Forces of the SEATO countries for collective defense against aimed aggression. The geography of P. I. is similar to that of any of the South East Asia nations. Should amied aggressors challenge the SEATO alliance, LENAWEE will be ready at the weighing of an anchor to lend assistance.
