Model of USS Washtenaw County
Lloyd King, a former crewman aboard USS Washoe County (LST-1165), and USS Polk County (LST-1084), is building a model of Washtenaw. This project will take quite some time to complete. Photos will be added as the construction proceeds. Visit Lloyd's Polk County web site to see photos of the outstanding job he did with his Polk models.
