My Dad was a member of PT 221 Crew. I think he saved this picture because he had friends on PT 224.
My Dad is back row second from left in the attached pic.

Thanks,

The officer's name, seated wearing khakis, is RAY ROSENTHAL. He was one of my engineering professors at the University of Wisconsin-Platteville in the early '70's.

Don and all:
This 2nd photo is different, maybe a later crew as Mike knows. The skipper here is LTjg Pete Rock.
Take care,

Ted,
Thanks for your reply. The difference in the photos, in the first pic is the PT 224 crew and the second is the PT 221 crew.
