USS Pensacola (LSD-38)

USS Pensacola (LSD-38)

USS "Pensacola" (LSD-38) was a sclass|Anchorage|dock landing ship of the United States Navy. She was the fourth Navy ship to be named for the naval town of Pensacola, Florida. She was built at General Dynamics Quincy Shipbuilding Division in Quincy, Massachusetts and commissioned in 1971.

In early 1995, the Commanding Officer of USS "Pensacola" was relieved due to the fact that in November 1994 the ship had run aground off the east coast. In 1995, while cruising in the Mediterranean, the ship suffered a major fuel leak, causing the ship to go to General Quarters. The fuel leak was repaired, and no one was injured. In 1996, USS "Pensacola" ran aground once again while en route to Newport, Rhode Island. "Pensacola" was finally decommissioned in 1999, transferred to Taiwan and redesignated ROCS "Hsu Hai" (LSD-193).
