The pix of the Korean PTs in the "torpedo director" thread prompted me to upload this photo taken by a correspondant of mine in Seoul, S. Korea:

Look familiar? Wonder which of the four Korean PTs it came from??

Al
Maybe 613, the one that burned in 1952, or 620 which was scrapped in 1964. However, I have no final disposition info on PT 616.
Take care,

Hi Ted,
I take it the 4 PT boats given to S Korea were PT 613, 620, 616.
What about the fourth one?

Victor;
PT 619 of course. The poor boat that stayed at the PTHQ in Memphis for years.
