Hello, We are French and we apologize for our language (Google translation). For information, with our association, we bought a French Landing Craft Mechanized Mk6 (Higgins boat). We want to put it back like on D-Day, in LCM Mk3 at Utah Beach. Currently our choice is focused on the PA 13 – 2 of the USS Joseph T. Dickman. We are looking for the size of the codes to be painted on the hull and the plans for the 50 caliber machine guns. could you help us? Best regards Charles
