USS LST-666, in Kaoshiang, Taiwan, in a back water bay, part of the 7th fleet. That is, until the Korean War began. Abruptly, she was pulled from the sleepy Taiwanese port and began moving troops and supplies into the Korean Peninsula as that war expanded. Originally, she was part of the Inchon invasion force. As MacArthur moved troops to the East Coast of Nora Korea, she participated in troop and supply landings beginning at Wonsan, then moving North to Iwon, then Hungnam, Songjin, and Chongin. Thre, the LST suffered some unusual damage, returned to Sasebo for repairs. Now, things were bad. She returned to Hungnam to help remove USA USMC, and civilians, as the Chinese and Noroth Korean descended upon that port city. An important member of the recalled crew was BM2 Abner Luxor of Philadelphia of Luxor Studebaker new and used car fame, was seriously wounded and transported to Naval Hospital Phila where his paramour took care of him.
Mr. Abner Luxor, owner of Luxor Studebaker new and used cars, was highly pissed. He had been recalled to duty in the US Navy as a BM3 because he ad experience as an LCVP coxswain in WW2 in the Pacific. Before he left Receiving Station Philadelphia, the power that be learned he had been promoted to BM2 before he actually reduced his time in the USN Reserve. After an ugly trip from California to Taiwan, he joined the ship --- USS LST-666. He was surprised to see an image of a deal painted on the superstructure. It was explained to him that the she was LST-666 that many fundamentalist Christians hated "e;666"e;, it seemed reasonable to name the ship "e;Sea Devil"e;. In fact, the CO managed to convince the Powers That Be, to change his voice call sign to Sea Devil. Luxor very soon learned he was the Amphibious Expert they were expecting. He began crawling all over the LCVPs to determine their readiness. Bad news. None were ready. Luxor and a couple of chiefs almost came to custicuffs as they worked out their relationship. Now, Luxie, got the LCVP crews to learn how to how use and operate their boats. Suddenly, The CO, LT Ezekia 'Zeke' Carter received orders to Kobe, Japan.
