Have the Squadron in Action Plus, another hardcover book, plus some stuff from PT Boat.org
 
I seem to remember reading they had mounted a 37mm gun on the front of PT109.



Watch the focus Eddy, looking forward to seeing this. :popcorn
 
Great subject
I might have leaned toward McHale's Navy, especially after some torpedo juice. Lookin' forward to your build.

I'll try boss! :tomato Yep, JFK's crew found a 37mm somewheres & lashed it down to the bow the night before she got rammed :good:
 
Thanks fellas. :drinks Last night I gave the plastic a bath in some Dawn dish soap, sliced a few bits off the sprue & off the deck since some of the photo etch replaces moulded on stuff like the torpedo tube guides, hatches, & I think, toe railing along the bow... Anyways, I'll git some pics taken & posted soon. Had to run mom to Sonora to do some shopping & just got back...
 
Here ya go fellas...had to work fast as outside light is fading fast :blush:

I'll try and get a close up of the logo tomorrow & see if it'll be acceptable for a Badge for this campaign...
