USS Washoe County LST-1165

         

Welcome to the USS Washoe County LST 1165 Association's Official Web Site.........

 

Unlike any other ship in the U.S. Navy, LSTs did it all.

They shelled the enemy positions like the main combat ships.

They put combat forces with heavy combat equipment and men right in the face of the enemy.

They hauled cargo to support our troops.

They acted as "Mother Ships" to the smaller combat craft in "Brown Water Navy" operations and even became "Aircraft Carriers" with "choppers" landing and takeing off on the main deck.
