PT Boat List - PT Boat Nicknames

NOTE:
In some cases, different
sources show different
spellings for names on the
same boat. All versions
have been included here.
Some names appear more than
once, either because the
name itself was popular
during the war or because
boats were renamed as crews
transferred between craft.
