Album, Photograph

A set of 116 digital photographs and image files related to World War II LSTs, including their design, manufacture, and service. Most of the photographs relating to LST construction come from the Evansville Shipyard and related suppliers. Photographs show LSTs at various stages of construction, models and buildings used in the design process (including a to-scale building at Fort Know which replicates the interior Tank Deck space to tesk ventilation), and during sailing and landing operations in service. Other photographs include other war-time products made by the companies that helped produce the ships as well as smaller landing craft in operation alongside LSTs.

Several photographs show wounded and deceased soldiers, and may contain graphic content.
