The General Squiers were completed from 1943-1945 as troop transports based on Maritime Commission standard C4-S-A1 hulls. Consideration was given to fitting them out as attack transports, but they lacked the stability to carry more than 10 LCVPs or the space for the accompanying troops and supplies. They were therefore employed as point-to-point troop ships operated by the Navy according to Army schedules.

The ships cost about $10.4 million apiece.
