Supporting a position with facts based on primary sources? What were you thinking?? Don't you know that "...because I was told..." is far more credible??? [:-grin-:] Well done. There'll be an extra ration of grog for ye.

It boggles my mind the way some people insist on coming up with off-the-wall crap like that, especially in the face of credible data. Arrrrrrrrgh!

Have you seen Ken Prescott's book "A PT Skipper in the South Pacific"? I just ordered it. Wonder if he talks about rafting with the 109 in it?

I wasn't sure what all this was all about... then I saw the postings over in Fine Scale Modeler on the 109. Then it all made sense....
