Is the LST the ship of a war movie starring Jeff Chandler? Sorry, I do not
have the original title, in Italian was "Scialuppe a Mare". It was the
story of a ship which traveled in a convoy from the USA to the Pacific
theatre and was bombed by the Japanese and was sinking... but her landing
crafts were still able to tow her to a port for repair. The Cpt., Jeff
Chandler, was injuried and IIRC, died... but the ship was in a safe port.
Do you remember this movie?
Is the LST the same type of ship/H.M.V. of the movie?
Regards
Raimondo - MVPA 15878 & IMPS 2320
P.S.
I am having problems with Arthur server: the same problems encountered by
many Listers in the last weeks. I am sending messages to
mil-veh@mil-veh.org and it worked until yesterday Dec 19! Today, Dec 20,
no mail at all and my messages sent yesterday are NOT being delivered...
