>PACV No. 2 is shown at Moc Hoa in 1967. Notice the lack of outside decking for the crew or passengers. The decking was added before the PACVs second deployment in 1968. The forward access door is open. Although the PACV was fast and could cross all manner of terrain and water it was NOISY. No way could you sneak up on anyone. PACVs carried twin .50s above the pilothouse and M60 machine guns on either side (one is poking out of the second window aft of the standing crewman). [Photo: US Navy]
