Hey Frank, I'm eagerly awaiting the release of your new book, but I've been going to ask you if your book has much on the dry dock operation surrounding the PT squadrons in the Pacific. I'm currently working on my Italeri 1/35 PT(building it as the 488 boat) & dockside diorama & I've got a long way to go to completion......
That said though, I have a 1/72 scale Revell kit that I was going to do as a Ron 33 boat BEFORE the Italeri kit was released, so now I'm trying to decide what to do with the Revell boat. I think I've decided to do it in a dry dock setting, so was curious if your new book addresses much of that in word, or photo(s).
Like I said it's probably a long way away(the 72nd build), but I'm curious & awaiting your book.
Have a great weekend everybody!

I have no word from the publisher as to when the new book will be out this year. He is keeping it a secret. The book does show several of the DRY DOCKS at Melville and in the War Zone. The book does not touch on the subject of the drydocks in any great detail. If you need any photos to start your project, give me a jingle.........
