Amtracs at Normandy

Thanks for the link to that forum, Jakko. Seems the same photos go round.

Here is another one:

“LVT-2 on Utah beach pictured in May 1954” - one of these two is preserved at the Utah Beach Landing Museum. It could even be they used parts of these two to make one example as by the time the restoration started the two hulks were very very rusted

A NARA photo showing 'Alligators' (LVT1 and LVT2) at a supply depot in Southern England (unspecified) on 23 Mar 44.

IIRC, some LVTs were trialed in North Devon for possible use in Overlord/ Neptune, but were found to be unsuitable.
