Cranford The Landing Ship, Tank was a war-winning weapon. Nazi Germany didn't have anything like it and had to seize a port or make do with a barge. Against light resistance, this worked. It wouldn't work against prepared defenses such as the German Atlantic Wall or the determined Imperial Japanese fortified islands from 1943 on.This Osprey New Vanguard book continues a tradition of excellence. The LST was a British invention, but American industry made it a practical reality. The LST was designed to land heavy equipment over the beach--especially the tank. Prior.

“This book comes highly recommended for both historical and informative content & use, and an invaluable point of reference for the military modeler.” Mark Smith, Model Shipwrights
He was a special operations forces scenario writer at the Joint Readiness Training Centre for 12 years and is now a freelance writer. He lives in Cypress, Texas. He served in the 5th Special Forces Group in Vietnam in 1969–70 and subsequently in airborne infantry, long-range patrol and intelligence assignments until retiring after 26 years. Gordon L Rottman entered the US Army in 1967, volunteered for Special Forces and completed training as a weapons specialist.
Through its history, the LST saw service from late 1942 until late 2002, when the US Navy decommissioned the USS Frederick (LST-1184), the last ship of its type. Capable of discharging its cargo directly on to shore and extracting itself, the LST provided the backbone of all Allied landings between 1943 and 1945, notably during the D-Day invasion. The Landing Ship Tank (LST) is one of the most famous of the many World War II amphibious warfare ships. This book reveals the development and use of the LST, including its excellence beyond its initial design expectations.
