Unfortunately I didn't take any photo's on the other side on the IL river. I left that to Demorcan (Wayne) & not sure when he will post them. This is the rear end of the LST. It was the 1st to hit land on D-day. WWII Carrying men, tanks, jeeps, & what other artillery was required.
This is the 1st in the USA it was retrieved from Greece not to long ago. Headed to the town that it was built in. (here in IL) For restoral.
It was in Port here for a couple weeks, with tours, in trying to raise the $$. Having made other stops along it's way "home".
