are only two things that we all feel in relation to shipmates. In my case, it's for all of you involved with LST 325, my friends in the Ohio LST/Amphibs Association and of course my Dad's shipmates aboard LST 125.
I received news today of the passing of "Patsy" Emanuele, an LST 125 shipmate of Dad's. Although I never had the honor of meeting Mr. Emanuele in person, I corresponded with him via email through his daughter. Mr. Emanuele was a Plankholder of LST 125, picking up the 125 at the shipyard in Evansville. He truly was one of the "Greatest Generation".
