Giant Seagoing "Freight Cars" Unload War Cargoes on Leyte. A flotilla of Coast Guard-manned and Navy LSTs, those massive-mouthed carriers of war material, disgorge their cargoes on the beach of Leyte Island early in the liberation assault in the Central Philippines. While anti-aircraft guns from their bows point into the sky against possible Jap air raids, hundreds of American liberators build unloading "docks" out to the LSTs' ramps.
