Our group is comprised of the shipmates who manned Navy ship LST-291, as well as their families and friends. We share stories, photos, and contacts, and also keep apprised of upcoming reunions. As a matter of fact, I am in the process of posting the new photos from the reunion held August 1, 2009 at Kings Inn Camp, Richardsville, Pennsylvania. Just email LST291@yahoogroups.com to send a message to the group. Membership approval is required to join. No spam or shocking photos allowed - I am not getting any younger and the shock... well, I hate to think of what it might do to me! ;-)
