The LST-271 was never given a formal name other than the USS
LST-271. This wasn't uncommon with smaller vessels during WWII,
such as LST's, PC's, PT's, etc.
Some ships that went unnamed that survived the war and scrapping
were formally named later; however, the USS LST-271 wasn't one of
them. She was decommissioned in April 1946, then scrapped 2 years
later. She earned 5 Battle Stars during WWII.
