While going through some files I came across a couple of pictures of some Base shots I would like to share with the message board.

Frank . . . .
Thanks a lot, its great that you willingly share your photo archive with all us on this board. The wealth of information that you and others share here is fantastic - and makes this board a real educational tool for a deeper and more complete look at the history known as PT Boats.
Thanks to you and all that share.

Hey Frank, thanks for sharing the pictures, however I can't seem to get them to come up on my msg board. Any tricks to this?
I'm especially interested in those of Tulagi and Mios Woendi.
Thanks,
Randy Finfrock |

Hello Mr. Andruss-
Yes, it has been a very long time since I've posted here. I had lost my dang password , I somehow deleted it, so I couldn't get on. I had just found my password in my top desk drawer so here I am again. I still check out the board once or twice a day and the refference material on this site is just, to say the least, remarkable! I have to thank you Frank for this fantastic job you are doing in keeping the history and spirit alive and well on the board.
I just came across this picture of the mechanic's A-frame structure on Tulagi and I am very excited about it. I have modeled this structure on my Tulagi 1/32 scale diorama 13 years ago. The picture that I used as a refference came from Frank Johnsons book on PT's.
In your vast collection of photos Frank, do you have any others from Tulagi that you might want to post here?
I had also read where someone else had some pictures of Tulagi. I do not recall who it was, I need to go back and find the post. But perhaps if that member is reading this , PLEASE, post those pictures of Tulagi for us here to view.
Keep up the good work Frank!
