[WWII] I'm looking for the naval officers of LCT-603

[CurraheeMan]

I searched for the muster files with no luck. 

There's also a lot of conflicting information. The craft landed on Omaha Beach, yet it appears in the Utah Beach landing table (Uncle Red) as part of the operation order. Looking for more clarity there as well.

Thank you!

You're welcome. 

603 is an interesting LCT, and is referred to at least several times on the ww2lct.org website.
