Thanks to www.navsource.org for the following information. At left is the LCS(L)(3)-65 (Landing Craft Support), which was built in 1944. In 1947, she served as a reserve training ship in the Great Lakes Naval District area. In September 1952, the 65 was still training reservists but was working out of Wheeling, W.Va, serving Naval Reserve Training Centers up and down the Ohio River. In 1954, the ship went to New Orleans where naval personnel from Indochina (which would later become South Vietnam) were trained. After her service in Indochina (South Vietnam), the 65 was given to the Navy of Greece in 1958 and renamed the Maridakis, in honor of Lt. Maridakis who lost his life during the sinking of the submarine H.S. Proteus. On July 10, 1976, the 65 was placed on the inactive list. At right is LCI(L)-978 (Landing Craft Infantry - Large). It was built in 1944 and was used during World War II. In 1948, it was redesigned as a Landing Ship Infantry Large (LSIL-978). In 1952, it was transferred to Salvage School in Bayonne, N.J., and used as a salvage training vessel.
