My grandpa (Laurence Verrill) was on PT-302, and I was wondering if anyone had any photos of the crew and boat that they could share.

Thanks

Chris,

Google the NavSource website, go to Patrol Craft, then PT Boats, then go down the list and click on PT 302.

There are three photos of the 302 there.

Welcome Chris!

I have these listed as PT 302. I believe most of them came from Frank Andruss's collection:

In the next to last photo of the 302 there appears to be a port hole in the hull side. Was this a crew modification done after the boat was commissioned?

Chris,

Wow! Those multitudinous photos of the 302 Jeff posted beat anything on the NavSource website!

Thanks to Jeff and Frank.

Happy to share Drew, glad you like them! A big thanks to Dick Washichek for installing the photo album for us, it took about 2 minutes to upload and post.

Good eye Larry, I'd like to know too.

I believe so. I will have my mom confirm when I see her this week. I know that my mom will enjoy the photos when she sees them.
