LST 525 fflSTORY LST 525 was built during World War II at the shipyards of Jeflersonville Boat and Machine Company, Jefferson- ville, Indiana, and she was launched on 20 December 1945. The LST 525 saw service during the war as an air- craft carrier, probably one of the smallest ever. With a plywood flight deck, this midget carrier operated ofif the coast of southern France with a complement of 10 Piper Cubs and Army pilots aboard. When the war ended, she was put into mothballs at Greencove Springs, Florida. The outbreak of the Korean cold war recalled the LST 525 to active du y. She was recommissioned on 20 October 1950. Since returning to active dury LST 525 has participated in all the major landing ship operations in the Atlantic, cruising from the Arctic Circle to the Tropics. First row: Louis M. Ciffone, T. R.
