After roaming through eBay under "PT Boat" heading, didn’t find much new or interesting, changed the search to "boats military" and ran across this, thought it might be of interest to some:

Can't remember who posted the PT-809 images on our PhotoBucket site, but there are some great shots of her, for those interested. Boy, I hope the memory doesn't get any worse as I grow older ! ! ! !

Hers is the link:

I think the 809 pics might have been my post from various sources (not sure). Anyone have any additions?

Hey Will . . .

Yeah, that was my thought just wasn't sure, I think both you and Ed had posted them. There was an earlier (not sure when) post asking about the 809 .

Dick / Will,

I was the one who actually posted the PT809 album on the photobucket site. My primary sources were Pt Boats HQ (Alyce Guthrie), member Chip Marshall (whom I consider to be the resident expert on PT 809) and my own photos from Elco's archives. Some of the news photos may have been from you, Will, I don't specifically recall. I can email much higher res files of my photos if anyone is interested.
