[StartQuote] Portholes were definately a Ron 22 thing. I was told that some were "liberated" from a French shipyard. Obviously one of the boats did it and many followed. Some had them in the wardroom only some crews quarters, some both and also engineroom. I have also seen one pair in the aft store room as it was probably being used for berthing. On the 302 it looks as though wardroom only, placed at the forward part of both officers bunks. The bunks were not directly across from each other. CO's locker aft of bunk and XO's locker forward of bunk. So as a result the portholes are at different locations on each side. On the port side it appears below the cleat. On the stbd it is closer to the turret. Of course they were painted over and could be open while in port or returning to home port, so they would be very easy to model in the closed position.
