This proves there are still plenty of PT boat pictures out there. Those are great pictures.

There are plenty of photos still around, I have many of them, but Number One, it takes plenty of work to try and get these small photos touched up so they can be blown up to at least a 5x7 or 8x10 for a book, and number two, many of the photos have no descriptions, so you have tons of research to hopefully find out who, what, and where they were taken. Group shots are nice if you can identify everyone in the photo.

Frank,
Nobody said writing a book is easy, also the money is not great. It is only a labor of love
that you can spend several years on it. So why did I do it? Years later I hope my daughter will
tell her friends, "My father wrote these two books."

Frank has done a great job of sharing the photographs he collects. I look over the Board to see what he is up to at least once a week.
Books, Museum displays, Photobucket accounts, PT Boats Board Forum posts are ALL great ways to share ... keep it up all of you. You are inspirations for me.

Nat;
Can you place them on boats?(ie: skipper PT 157, etc). Also, is that Wharton, Cal Wharton later in RON 34?
Take care,
TED
