PT-309

Photos courtesy of Marc Flake


These are two shots of PT 309 from off the starboard bow. The second picture is a close-up within the same photograph showing the three kill markings and the tripod mount for the 20mm (which hasn't been installed yet) This is the view off the port bow, showing the 20mm mount, and a close-up of the 40mm gun mounted on the fantail. This is also a good study of the depth charges on their roll-off racks.

This photo illustrates how the late-war radar mast was installed behind the bridge, and in the foreground of the last one is a roll-off torpedo mount. Also a good shot of the back of the 40 mm Bofors and the two depth charges. The half cylinder in the foreground is part of a disassembled torpedo.
