LST 1166 Severely Damaged by Metal Salvage Vandals September, 2007

For those of you that visited this ship during our second reunion, you are probably wondering wondering what happened to the LST 1166 and why it has been deleted from the website: The U.S.S. Washtenaw County (LST 1166) has been severely damage by metal salvage vandals. Speculation has it that these are meth addicts trying to pay for their habit. The damage is so bad that the expectation is that the 1166 is no longer feasible to restore and may be towed out and sunk." I believe this is the last sister ship of LST 1159 that was still afloat, in her original configuration, and was being restored by many volunteers as a historical vessel available for visitations.
