Never rode in one and I ain’t complaining. I was in the engine room on watch when Roger went over in a stretcher. The tincan took him to Italy to get an appendectomy. The old 640 stayed up for just enough time to get it done. Down and back on patrol. 16 biguns with targets. It was our job.
Only did one medevac from a sub - in the Adriatic - and it was a bad day with heavy seas. Thankfully we had a Rhib and not those old, clumsy MWB’s.
