USNS LTC John U.D. Page (AK-4496), was the lead ship of the LTC John U.D. Page-class cargo ship built in 1985. [1] [2] The ship is named after Lieutenant Colonel John U. D. Page, an American soldier who was awarded the Medal of Honor during Korean War. [3]

Construction and commissioning

The ship was built in 1985 at the Daewoo Shipyard, Koje, Yeongnam. She was put into the service of United States Lines as American Utah and Irene D from 1985 until the company's bankruptcy in 1986. [4] [5]

Sea-Land Service later acquired the ship in 1988 and put in service as Utah and Newark Bay until 2000. [6] [5]

In October 2000, the ship was chartered by the Maersk Line for the Military Sealift Command and was put into the Prepositioning Program and the Maritime Prepositioning Ship Squadron 2 as MV LTC John U.D. Page (AK-4496) on 1 March 2001. [4]

In 2015, the ship left for scrap in Rotterdam, Netherlands by Sea2Cradlen and the recycling process was completed by 2016. [7]
