    My father was a plank owner on the LCS(L)(3)-24... She picked up 42 survivors of the USS Bush at Okinawa on 6 April 45 and was hit by a kamikaze while protecting the USS Sterrett on 9 April 45...

    Were any LCL's used in the Normandy landings? - I always got the impression there was no maritime close artillery support available on those beaches
