F FBFXVAFIY '21, 1061 Navy Yard Cufs 4 Monfhs OH Building Time for LPDS The Navy Yard may not be building any capital ships these days-but it is still the can- do yard. ' S a t u r day's commissioning of the LaSalle ILPD 31, the third of six combination troop carrier and vehicle transports constructed here, proved it. , The yard knocked four months off the time it required to build and commission the Ra- leigh KLPD 11. 1 , Keel for the LaSalle was laid in April,ll962. Keel for the Ra- leigh, the first LPD construct- ed at the' yard, was laid in June, 1960 and lt was 'com- missioned in Sept., 1962. Yard workers took six months off the time it took to launch the Raleigh by sending the LaSalle into the sea in Aug., 1963. The Raleigh was launched in March, 1962. LPDs are open at the stern like the rear of a station wagon. The Well deck is flooded to allow landing craft and amphibious vehicles to 'be launched. A flight deck accom- modates six troop helicopters and the ship can carry 900 Ma- rines ready for combat. The keels have already been laid for three more LPDs at the yard: The Austin ILPD 47, 1 p p-r o x imate commissioning date, November, 1964: Ogden rLPD 59, January, 1965, and Duluth KLPD 61, October, 1965. , Vice Adm.
