The USS LST 393 Veterans Museum is based on a restored LST-1-class tank landing ship. USS LST 393, is one of 1051 produced. Only two remain intact. She was launched and commissioned into the US Navy in 1942 and received three battle stars for participation in the Sicilian and Salerno landings and the invasion of Normandy. She was on her way to Japan when the war ended. After being decommissioned, she was renamed Highway 16 and ferried cars from Detroit to Muskegon until retirement. Her restoration is an ongoing project and she now serves as a museum ship in Muskegon.
