[StartQuote] My dad worked for Esso, so my sibs and I were pleased to come across the book "Ships of the Esso Fleet in WWII". A scan of it was on Google, but only in "snippet view"... you could see a few lines of text here and there, not the whole book. I contacted Google with a request to open it up, as it was surely in the public domain now... and they did! You can look at the book here: [url]https://books.google.com/books?id=e3JMAAAAMAAJ&printsec=frontcover#v=onepage&q&f=false[/url] Use "Search in this book" on the left side of the page... put in "PT" or "MTB", and find numerous mentions of PTs being carried as deck cargo.
