2026 Cruise Schedule
The ship departs Evansville on September 19, 2026, for the following stops:
Sept 23-29, 2026: Hendersonville, TN (Sanders Ferry Park).
Oct 1-6, 2026: Ashland City, TN (River Bluff Park).

The LST 325, better known as "Landing Ship, Tank" is the last remaining landing craft of her type still in operation much as she would have been on D-Day, June 6th, 1944. My father served as a signalman on her sister, the LST 374, during the European, African, and Sicilian Invasions before they both sailed to Portsmouth, England, as part of the first assault on Omaha Beach. I've written a book to honor my father and his shipmates, the proceed of which I donate to veterans groups and the LST 325 Ship Museum. Please consider purchasing a copy and help support these important organizations.

You are amazing
Wow!! Donna, your video is great! WOW, it's wonderful to see your images animated. The new element of creating a video with your father moving is so powerful, sure brings history, him and his ship mates to life. Truly a real gift to your family.
I expect to see a movie made based upon your book!
