Summary

Description
English: Ex-ARL-5 in Royal Naval service as HM L.S.E. (LS)-1 near Baltimore, MD., 25 September 1943, after completion of conversion. Note the British 12 Pdr (3") gun on a raised platform at the stern and the absence of 40mm quad mounts on this ship. Like the U.S. ships, they also originally had eight 20mm mounts. The British ships lacked the "A" frame hoist fitted to the U.S. ships, but this photograph suggests and others confirm that the bow doors were operational, rather then being welded shut as in the U.S. units of this class. US National Archives photo # 19-N-57196, RG-19 LCM, a US Navy Bureau of Ships photo now in the collections of the US National Archives.
