    It finally dawned on me today why I love this landing craft so much. Eddie Albert from “Green Acres” got the Bronze Star from the Navy for piloting his landing craft onto Tarawa I believe and on his way back to his troop ship he rescued a platoon of Marines that were stranded on a coral reef under extreme fire.

    LCM6 took her maiden voyage today. I need to make some adjustments, she is very slow, perhaps a higher voltage battery will sort it..

    A productive couple of days! The bow door is made, the tank deck is done, the anti slip bars were a bit of a pain but with paitence I think I made a reasonable job. The tank deck inspection covers are fitted and the door hinge is sorted. I have added the stiffening bars to the outside of the tank deck and a bullwalk capping added to square things away nicely. Final job today was the wheelhouse, a simple assembly job. Packed in for today, feeling a bit woozy from all the glue fumes! I haven't really worked much with plastic sheet, now I remember why...
