Overview

Commanded by Lieutenant John F. Kennedy, the PT-109 was on assignment to intercept a convoy of Japanese destroyers when it was rammed and sunk by Japanese destroyer Amagiri on August 2nd, 1943. Lieutenant Kennedy’s actions to rescue his crew members and lead them to safety have given the PT-109 a prominent place in American naval and popular history.
