| abstract | - USS LST-835 was an LST-542-class tank landing ship built for the United States Navy during World War II. Late in her career, she was renamed Hillsdale County (LST-835) — after Hillsdale County, Michigan, the only U.S. Naval vessel to bear the name — but saw no active service under that name. Originally laid down as LST-835 by the American Bridge Company of Ambridge, Pennsylvania on 6 September 1944; launched on 25 October 1944; sponsored by Mrs. I. Raphael; and commissioned on 20 November with Lieutenant William H. McHenry in command.
