Response to Question... on Deck Cargo...

The 2 small craft look like tugs/tenders for harbor use and less than 50ft long as the Mk5 LCT's are 114ft long. As for the LCT it could be any of the 500 mk5's built and were all delivered by Nov 42. A quick glance of the ww2lct.org website about 1/4 to 1/3 looked to have been Lend Lease to the British.

The LCT was self sufficent when operated in the MED., so riding on the "T" it would have to be on a long trip to somewhere.

With very few exceptions, LCT's were built on the three major rivers and Great Lakes.
