USS PT-68
Grounded and destroyed after conducting a barge sinking run 1943, 1st October 1943. A 77' Elco completed in Bayonne on 1/13/42. She had been planned to transfer to the Brits, but this was changed after Pearl Harbor. Operating with PT 191 in the Huon Gulf, New Guinea, they sunk 2 barges before PT 68 grounded, and then came under fire from the shore. The crew was removed and then she was set ablaze. There is an MG on the bow among the crewman, a 21" torpedo tube, a pair of what are likely twin 50s under the canvas shrouds, depth charges, and finally smoke generators on the stern.
