Construction
LST-925 was laid down on 10 May 1944, at Hingham, Massachusetts, by the Bethlehem-Hingham Shipyard; launched on 21 June 1944; and commissioned on 15 July 1944.

Service history
During World War II, LST-925 was assigned to the Asiatic-Pacific theater. She took part in the Lingayen Gulf landings in January 1945. In the early hours of 10 January she was damaged by Japanese Army Shin'yō-class suicide motorboats in Lingayen Gulf and beached on "Orange Beach" to avoid sinking.

She returned to the United States and was decommissioned on 26 November 1945, and struck from the Navy list on 5 December, that same year. On 9 May 1948, the ship was sold to Consolidated Builders Inc., Seattle, Washington, for scrapping.
