Beached MIke Boat in Storm SYS024
On one of our beach landings, the surf was pretty heavy and the boat had to be latched to the beach using a bull dozer until the storm passed. This is the USS Francis Marion APA 249. At the time, it was a new ship for the Amphibious Fleet of the U S Navy. The reason tha the ship was cool I believe that it has air conditioning. Can someone sonfirm that one?
Shaing a few memories of Life as an FMF Marine. Enjoy,
