PRB - Plane Rearmament Boat
Hello,
I am looking for ANY info on WW II US NAVY PRBs, Plane Rearmament Boats.
These were plywood boats, used to carry bombs and torpedoes to seaplanes.
They are approx 34 ft in length and had a single Gray Marine 671 diesel
engine just like the LCVP landing craft. I own one that is converted to an
active commercial fishing boat. It was built in 1944 in Dark Harbor Maine.
I can find lots of info about PBRs LCVPs PTs, etc, but absolutely nothing on
PRBs.
Thanks for any help you can offer.
Regards,
