History.

PT-109 was an 80’ Elco PT boat last commanded by Lieutenant John F. Kennedy, future United States President, in the Pacific theatre during World War II. His actions to save his surviving crew after the sinking of PT-109 made him a war hero. PT-109's ramming by a Japanese destroyer contributed to Kennedy's long-term back problems and required months of hospitalization at Chelsea Naval Hospital. Kennedy's postwar campaigns for elected office referred often to his service on PT-109.PT-109 was an 80’ Elco PT boat last commanded by Lieutenant John F.
