Summary[edit]

Description
English: NEW ORLEANS - (Clockwise from far left) Joel Madere, Ed Daroca, Bruce Harris and George Benedetto take a newly-restored Higgins LCP(L) boat out for a test run June 12 in the Industrial Canal, New Orleans. The four men, along with numerous other volunteers, spent thousands of hours restoring the Higgins boat to 85 percent of its original condition as part of a restoration project for the National D-day Museum in New Orleans. The boat's hull number (P10-21) was dedicated in memory of Coast Guard Signalman Douglas Munro who lost his life rescuing a battalion of Marines trapped by enemy Japanese forces at Point Cruz, Guadalcanal, Sept. 27, 1942.
