The PTs were built about the same. Normal practice for boat construction at the time.

My Dad took me to see "PT 109" when it came out. He had seen PTs in the distance when he landed in France, but, when he watched the film he commented that he had had no idea that they were as large as they were.

Color film produced by Elco during the war about building the boats. The engines are installed in part 3.


Thanks for posting. We WWII Military History buffs love this kind of thing. Plus, the Packard-built V-12 is a big plus!
