[StartQuote] Hi Len, Charlie is correct. Additionally, I recently went to the National Archives II in College Park Maryland and researched several PT Boat Deck Logs. I was looking at different boats logbooks, and here is what I found. If you look in the front of each deck log book, there is a list of all the crewmen on board during the time covered, (for example a 3 month period) This crew list will have the names and when they reported aboard and then when they transferred off the boat. Then you can look on the page corresponding to that date and see the log entry for when the individual sailor transferred. I have a few examples for some of the boats that interested me. One was PT27, John Akins Boat, and the other example is PT235, Milt Donadts and Alvin Hansons Boat. Look at each pic and you will se what I mean. Jerry The Cover of the Logbook for PT27, you can see the box with all the other deck logs for PT25, PT26 and PT27 all stored by date covered in that box on the table next to the book [image]http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p249/ptboats/Jerry%20Gilmartin/PT27logbookoutside.jpg[/image] PT27 Logbook Title Page [image]http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p249/ptboats/Jerry%20Gilmartin/PT27logbooktitlepage.jpg[/image] PT27 crew list shows John Akin dates [image]http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p249/ptboats/Jerry%20Gilmartin/PT27crewlistAkintransferdates.jpg[/image] Other page of PT27 crew list shows Akin as lead gunner [image]http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p249/ptboats/Jerry%20Gilmartin/PT27crewlistAkintransferdatelistedasLeadGunner.jpg[/image] PT27 transfer of old CO and New CO LT McElroy and Tobin [image]http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p249/ptboats/Jerry%20Gilmartin/PT2710Mar44LtTobinrelievedbyLtMcElroy.jpg[/image] PT235 crew list in front of logbook page 1 [image]http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p249/ptboats/Jerry%20Gilmartin/DSC00087.jpg[/image] PT235 crew list page 2 [image]http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p249/ptboats/Jerry%20Gilmartin/DSC00088.jpg[/image] PT235 Milt Donadt reports aboard [image]http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p249/ptboats/Jerry%20Gilmartin/DSC00089.jpg[/image] PT235 Alvin Hanson transfers to shore base force [image]http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p249/ptboats/Jerry%20Gilmartin/DSC00094.jpg[/image] Jerry Gilmartin[EndQuote]
