I have obtained more photos from the collection of Lt. Ed Dubose and have posted them here. They contain Ron 15 photos. Most do not have descriptions

Thanks for posting these photos Frank! Did you ever figure out which RON 15 boat that had the checkerboard stern? Jerry

I can see the darn photo in my head Jerry, but I looked for it last night with no luck

Frank I have the original photo, I can repost it here later. My question was if you ever figured out which boat it was? We guessed 203 but I have strong doubts about that since the photo was taken from 203s deck looking ahead of boat. The pics were from QM3c Dave Prentice crewman of 203.

Ok Jerry I remember now and to answer your question I am still not sure which boat this is.

Jerry;
I always thought the Checkerboard stern boat was PT 204, Aggie Maru.
Take care,

Ted, I missed the proper number of Prentice Boat, it was 204 not 203, sorry. No I dont think it was the 204 because like I said, that photo in question was taken from ther deck of the 204 so it could not possibly be the same boat.
