It's about time Jim that you posted a picture that wasn't just port or starboard views. I like that Garcia y Garcia stern look

Concurrent with the first batch of Elco 70-foot PT boats (PT’s 10-19), the U.S. Navy also ordered twelve boats to be fitted out as submarine chasers, or PTC’s. These boats were the same as their torpedo-boat sisters, but the PTC’s would carry twenty-four depth charges instead of torpedoes. Six charges would be carried in racks on the stern, while four more charges could be carried in two Y-guns located forward of the stern racks. Reloads were carried on rails that ran alongside the port and starboard deck edge.

Same ship as above but take note of the hedgehog launchers and also the depth charge throwers and racks aft (1960's).

Came across this while looking for towel day humor! USNS Lewis B. Puller (T-ESB-3)It will be one of two ESB variants of the U.S. Navy's planned fleet of Expeditionary Transfer Dock vessels. the first of the U.S. Navy's expeditionary mobile bases, designed for low-intensity missions...with a stern view for Mr Quatro!
