USNS Hershel "Woody" Williams (T-ESB-4) is an expeditionary mobile base sub-variant of the {{sclass-|Montford Point|expeditionary transfer dock}} (ESD) currently in service with the United States Navy (USN). The fourth ship of the class overall, the first two are ESDs, while the next three, and a planned sixth are ESBs.[7] They are all operated by the Navy's Military Sealift Command (MSC) with predominantly civilian crews, with the exception of {{USS|Lewis B. Puller|ESB-3}}, which owing to the nature of her operations, was commissioned and now operated directly by the Navy with USN crews. The ship was named in honor of Hershel W. "Woody" Williams in an announcement by then-Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus, on 14 January 2016. Williams was a Marine who earned the Medal of Honor in the Battle of Iwo Jima, during World War II.[8]

The $498 million contract for the then-unnamed vessel was awarded to the National Steel and Shipbuilding Company (NASSCO), a division of General Dynamics, in December 2014.[9] Her keel was laid on 2 August 2016,[1][10] and she was scheduled to be completed in early 2018.[10] The vessel was christened on 21 October 2017, at NASSCO in San Diego.[3] She was delivered to MSC 22 February 2018,[4] and placed into service the same day.[5] She is set to be deployed to the Mediterranean Sea where she can potentially serve both United States African and European Commands[7]

Hershel "Woody" Williams will be the first Navy ship other than the Littoral Combat Ship to deploy the Northrop Grumman MQ-8 Fire Scout rotary-wing UCAV.[11]
