High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! USS Cayuga County (LST-529) was an LST-491-class tank landing ship built for the United States Navy during World War II. Named for Cayuga County, New York, she was the only U.S. Naval vessel to bear the name. LST-529 was laid down on 8 November 1943 at Jeffersonville, Indiana by the Jeffersonville Boat & Machine Company; launched on 17 January 1944; sponsored by Mrs. Margaret S. Carey; and commissioned on 29 February 1944 with Lieutenant G. L. Moore, USNR, in command. During World War II, LST-529 was assigned to the European Theater and participated in the Invasion of Normandy in June, 1944. On 7 June 1946 she was decommissioned and, as a result of hostilities in Korea, recommissioned on 22 September 1950. She served in the Korean War and took part in the following campaigns: U.N. Summer-Fall offensive (July and August, 1951); the Second Korean Winter (December, 1951 through March, 1952); and the Korea, Summer 1953 (June and July, 1953). Immediately following the Korean War, she continued to serve in the Korean area until July, 1954. Following her Korean service, she returned to the United States.
