| Comments: | My dad was in the Philippines in world war II and he was talking about the shellbacks. He passed away and I'm trying to find out how I could get a shellback certificate for him so we could also honor that part of our history, Do you have any information about this. Thank You. He was Army/Air Force. |

| Comments: | In 1946 at the age of 9 I was transported by US Navy LST (number unknown) from Tsingtao (now Qingdao)to Shanghai. I would like to know which LST it was. For the record this was a "mercy trip" conducted by US Government to remove Europians from harms way, Communist invasion was iminent. |

| Comments: | Thank you so much for this website my name is Peter Mangin and Felix Mangin who served on LST 794 was my grandfather. He past away when I was very young and I never really knew about his service in WWII. My father Robert Mangin served in the U.S Army and I just recently recieved my discharge from the Marine Corps. My Father passed away when I got home from Iraq so I never got to ask him the questions that I wish I would have cared about when I was younger. I can't tell you how thankful I am to have this information about my grandfather and now I can put a story behind the purple heart that is displayed next to both my father and grandfathers military funeral honours flags in my home. Thank you again! |
