Landing Craft Personnel (Large) US

Based on the successful logging vessel, the Higgins boat, the Landing Craft Personnel (Large) was adopted for use by the British in the raiding role.  The US Navy also ordered the vessel but to a slightly different specification with forward gun tubs and an open well deck.  It was a lttle slower than the British version but carried more men.  Though a few were operated in the European Theatre of Operations, most were employed in the Pacific.

The model master was built by Dan Taylor and is cast by Milicast Models.
