LST Minute...

Throughout World War II, LSTs demonstrated a remarkable capacity to absorb punishment and survive. Despite being called "Large Stationary Target" by irreverent crew members, the LSTs suffered few losses in proportion to their number and the scope of their operations. Although the LST was considered a valuable target by the enemy, only 26 were lost due to enemy action, and a mere 13 were the victims of weather, reef, or accident.
