You smug-faced crowds with kindling eye
Who cheer when solider lads march by
Sneak home and pray that you'll never know
The hell where youth and laughter go.

How could I simulate ballast tanks that can be used to reduce draught further (assuming that clamshell doors would be possible with forward firing 13.5 inch guns without causing blast damage and other issues)? Looking on Wikipedia, the LSTs were able to go right up to the beach while having a draught of 4.6 meters in the rear (and 1.2 in the front), so it seems that 4.6 meters/15 feet is a good limit for anything right up to actually beaching.
