This World War II landing ship tank will feature special displays and exhibits to mark the 76th anniversary of D-Day, the invasion of Normandy on June 6, 1944.  LST 393 was there, and is one of only three ships at Omaha Beach still afloat.  Visitors can share this historic day aboard one of the most important D-Day artifacts anywhere.  The community celebration will feature an honor ride, World War II reenactors, unique World War II vehicles, the amazing “Air Raid Muskegon” featuring historic aircraft “battling” reenactors on the ship, a USO style swing dance and special activities for kids.  More info is at www.lst393.org or by calling 231-730-1477.
