I'm looking for some help with an LCVP project:
What does the interior of the gunner's stations look like on an LCVP?
I've looked at the LCVP project webpage (they built a new LCVP at Higgins using original plans, in 1999, for the D-Day museum.) There's lot s of in progress photos posted, but no shot that shows what the interior of the gunner position looks like.
My best guess at this point is that the gun stations were round holes in the aft deck, giving access to the interior of the boat. I would assume there was some sort of seat at the bottom-- the gunner's legs would need to go somewhere, and the position is too shallow for the gunner to be standing.
Can anyone help?
TIA!
