Shot of sand bags and empty 20-mm ammo cans. On the real boats these empty cans were normally filled with water or sand to reduce the effects of small arms or rocket blasts. This practice actually negated the usefulness' of the spaced bar armor that was designed to trigger prematurely a rocket to reduce the fatal blast effects.

Close-up of the anti-blast mine seats. 40 seats usually came stock with a new boat. Many of these seats were thrown overboard at the request of the troops riding inside to allow more room and a spot to lay down during transit to or from an area of operations. T-152-6 had only 12 seats remaining from the original 40.

Shot of life rings. Note the miniature broom as seen on the original T-152-6.
