The USS LST Ship Memorial, Inc. is currently based out of Evansville, Indiana where the USS LST-325 is currently docked. We are comprised of a small office staff, our dedicated volunteers, and our loyal membership. We are a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization created by Veterans to honor LSTs and the men who served on them. The LST 325 served in World War II on the beaches of Normanday, as well as in the invasions of Sicily and Solerno. Now, after over 75 years of operation, she remains as the last fully-functional World War II-configured LST.
