Patrol

PT boats on patrol.

The boats cruise along the beach.

They look for enemy soldiers in the jungle.

And they look for enemy ships out to sea.

The green PT boat blends in with the jungle background.

Everyone at the ready.

Battle stations in preparation for attack.

PT Boats on Patrol

The figures I am using with the PT boats are all 60mm but 54mm figures would work just fine.

PT boats patrol in the marshy waters alongside the sandy beach.

MPC sailors at the ready.

Ring hand figures with a Tim Mee dog as mascot.

Sailor forward has a pistol.

Another ring hand crew, this time in green.

Weapons in black and yellow this time.

Swab the Deck

A new PT boat with a new crew.

Loaders man the twin AA guns.

The skipper points out what he wants done.

Helmsman at the helm.

Signal flag.

Swab the deck.  Why do you think they call them "Swabbies?"

Anchors away!

The Crew

Helmsman at his station.

The decks are never clean.

Entering port in a Pacific island can be tricky, check the depth.

Practice good operational security, use the signal flags rather than the radio.

The full crew at work.
