Response to LST-325 Info Request
Sarge, as for as I know the LST-325 was not in Korea, but I could be wrong. From what I have read, "LST-325 was reactivated in 1951 for service in Military Sea Transport Service arctic operations. She was involved in Operation SUNAC (Support of North Atlantic Construction) in the Labrador Sea, David Strait and Baffin Bay in 1951-52".

When she went to the Military Sea Transport Service she was "de-gunned" if I recalled from the pictures from that time period. She worked in the Atlantic doing transport work for construction up in the icy waters of the north Atlantic. (Hence the ice deflector...NOT Ice Breaker) hull work.
