Robert;
Good to hear from you again.
Here is the link to our previous conversation on this subject:
http://www.ptboatforum.com/cgi-bin/MB2/netboardr.cgi?fid=102&cid=101&tid=1001&st=0&nd=10&pg=1&sc=20
Thanks to Chip and Frank(who tipped Chip off to the photo), we now have another photo of this turnover process, and in the photo the Russians have painted the USN numbers back on the hulls of several boats. Including forum member RCR's PT 740, which he purchased around 1998, as he posted in the series of previous posts(see Link), he still had remains of the boat at that time, I have not heard from him in quite a while, but I hope he sees this photo to see what his boat looked like in July 1955. This photo is taken at Kiel July 5, 1955.
Back of photo.
Take care,
TED

Thanks Ted, Chip, Frank. That's a rare shot, not many images of the 731-760s are around. I see they still carried the compressed air driven torpedo tubes.

May I ask someone to put those photos here once again. No images are available at the link in the first message.
