   I bet that was great fun sailing together and trying to take an island.

   We had a fleet at the time.
   This was a scale model combat fleet, so the patches that you see in
   one photo were laquered in place after attempting a landing on one of the islands.
   We were hoping to push all the target tanks off the edge and claim tonnage points.😁
   But the range of the rc tanks was too limited.

   Hi Umi,
   I like the photo of it sailing through the mist.
   It is nice to see something a little different.
   Do you have anymore photos you could show us ?

   Very interesting to see the Japanese concept of an LST. I have an interest in the British/US version and one of these days intend building one. My father skippered one throughout the North Africa and Italian landings in WW2. I even went on board her when she came back to the UK for refit in the drydock of the town where we lived.
