flying off, or landing on a YRBM

Paul Albertine
having spoken with lots of Army Door Gunners, I often tell them how small YRBM deck was and how you couldn't walk around the front of the aircraft...landing at night was even more of a challenge...  it seemed to me, as I was not a pilot...   they always pull up pics of LST's and say 'plenty of room'...   so does anyone or everyone have pics of landing on a YRBM (20 or 21 no matter), showing how little room for error there was...  tanks, they almost had me believing they were right, then I remembered they were Army types...we have great fun screwing with each other about flying...  they're afraid of the dark
