Auxiliary Personnel Lighter (APL-30)

Auxiliary Personnel Lighter (APL-30) was a Navy barge that had no engines.

Although APL-30 had no means of self-propulsion, she did have two boilers for steam and hot water, and evaporators for making over 24,000 gallons of drinking water daily.

She had two generators for electricity and air condition.

In addition, the barracks barge had a minor surgery ward and sick bay for patients.

APL-30 went to work for the Navy’s Task Force 117, as a hotel for boat crews and Army infantry soldiers of the 9th Infantry Division (Riverine Infantry) of the Mobile Riverine Force in the Mekong Delta.

For your kind Consideration.
