Landing Ship Tank (LST) US 325, is one of many LSTs built in Evansville for service during WW II. It is only fitting, she has returned to Evansville as a "sea worthy" ship that continues to cruise the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers and serve as a living memorial to her crews.

We will have a private tour while she is her home port and moored  on the Evansville Ohio River water front. The tour is being coordinated by John Davis, a crew member of LST 325 and our USS Beale DD-DDE 471.

Cost is $15.00 per person

The history of the LST, and especially LST US 325, can be seen at the following link:
