Any one have any information on the appropriate markings for US landing craft at Utah Beach? I have found plenty of photos of LCTs, LSTs, LCMs, and LCVPs with the diamond shape "O" for those in the Omaha beach landings, but have found little on the markings used for those same type of craft landing at Utah Beach. I have seen a very small number of photos with CTU and a three digit number on the superstructures-but could not determine if that was the hull number or some other sequence/designation. Some post d-day photos show LCTs without any markings other than the ship number.

Thanks in advance,
Dave

Great question. I have had the same problem. What are you trying to do?

Was building a 1/125 LCT Mk. 6 from the old Lindberg kit. Never found anything-so just went without any markings other than US and the hull numbers on the bow and the ship number on the rear of the pilothouse. Will post pics of the finished project at some point.
