"Sandscrapers" were the men who crewed the little known and unheralded LSMs (Landing Ships - Medium) in World War II. These were the ships that delivered men and materiel to the beaches under fire throughout the South Pacific island hopping campaign. The Sandscrapers chronicles the lives of the brave crewmen who repeatedly sailed their boxlike craft under the guns of Japanese shore batteries, and celebrates the sacrifices of those who gave "their last full measure of devotion" to the cause of freedom.
