Video: The US Army’s HUGE Swimming Truck Unit
Added 2024-10-19 03:35:22 +0000 UTCNew video on the U.S. Army's old LARC-LX / BARC, a huge 4x4 amphibious truck and ship-to-shore connector that aided in maritime logistics operations. The video covers the specifications of the LARC-LX, its limitations, unit-level capabilities, unit organization, and its service history in the U.S. Army (particularly in the 1950s and during Vietnam) and the Republic of China.

USS Comstock, not Comostock. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Comstock_(LSD-19). Otherwise excellent video - I thought I was familiar with army watercraft, but I'd never heard of the LACV-30 before. Time to go down that rabbit hole...
