Wreckage
LVT is sunk 200 yards off Mellu Island facing in the direction of Roi-Namur, in 10-15 feet of water in a bed of heavy coral growth. Probably sunk during the invasion. The steering and instrument panel are still recognizable. Its MG has been removed but belts of ammo remain on the floor of the craft.
