VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Subject: LST550 Author: David Wright [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 13:03:58 05/15/11 Sun In reply to: Paul Streng 's message, "My Dad was on the LST 550 also" on 17:53:19 11/17/10 Wed HI, My Dad Was onboard from the invasion of S>France to the occupation of Japan. He was a smallboat captain, Bosuns mate 2nd class, Charles Robert Wright, from Tennessee. He died in '05 but told me many stories. I'm now trying to get a set of his service decorations, as he had since lost them. I'd like to hear from anyone who knew him. After the war he was a professional Country-Western musician and then in drywall construction in central NJ. Thanks, David Wright [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
