Thirty tons of tank or cargo, or 60 troops: that was the load an LCM(3) took from a transport ship to the beach. Its longer, more buoyant hull was a reply to ever heavier tanks. Four men crewed it, with two .50 calibre machine guns for defence. More than 8,500 LCMs were built in American yards from 1942 to 1945, and the LCM(3) served at Normandy, across the Pacific and on the Rhine.
