May is living up to its billing as our rainiest month as well, but with the new grass, I am thankful. Watching a show on the PBR that was operated in Vietnam. An interesting show.

As I recall they had a single 50 cal hard mounted. Hard to fire toward both sides at once.

Dual 50 calibers in an electrically operated turret forward and a single .30 cal in the rear which was later replaced with a 50 cal. No where to hide like you said…
