Scenario 1 and I assume the others show the PC4xx/PC5xx class patrol boats with what appears to be the wrong armament. A photo of PC590 which foundered during the typhoon of Oct 45 but which was also present during the invasion of Okinawa pretty much shows that the armament package described on the USCG Historians website is correct. (she was CG manned)

Not a big deal except for the DaBabes folks really.

Interesting description of riding out a typhoon (or not) on a smallish ship too.
