About this ebook
This is a fictional story of USS LST-666 during the Korean War. (The original 666 was broken up after WW2.) Because of her hull number, she is named Sea Devil that mysteriously appear on the scene at Koashiung, Taiwan, at our story beginning. With a crew of upset non-active duty reservists, she sailed across the Pacific from Astoria, Oregon, to Yokosuka, Japan. After dry docking to clean her hull, she sailed to this Taiwanese port and anchored. A Philly pissed off sailor, Abner Luxor, appears who is believed to be an expert on Landing Craft operations. He proves that he is, to the mortification of two Chief Petty Officers.
