Same as a fighter squadren. You knew tho was good, who was weak, and
what
the others did. You did not have to be in the same plane. They worked
along side the boat, these were not all solo missions.

Let's see here. Six guys per boat. 250 people swearing they say Kerry do
this,
Kerry do that.....(oh, make that 249 because his Commander got a guilty
conscience and stated that he regrets signing the paper shoved in front of
him).

That comes to over 40 boats. Bill, that's not a "mission", that's an
armada.

They did not all work the same place at the same time, but I bet they worked
in teams a lot of the time. If the boat took a disabling hit, they would be
toast if a single boat. Same as a wing man in the air force or naval air.
I have a buddy who was shot down a couple of times (Marine pilot), and he
states the buddies check out damage and flew cover. I would bery much
presume the same for boats.
