They were used by both the American and the British in Europe and by the Americans in the Pacific. While designed for landing tanks they also carried troops (and could hold up to 60 if I recall correctly). It was actually 2 LCM3's that were used as landing craft in Saving Private Ryan. I have a Trumpeter kit and it looks very nice in the box. The Perth Modelers web site has a nice in box review with shots of the sprues. John Plzak didn't Fonderies Miniatures do one ?

Yes, but someone who had both told me the old Lindberg one was superior. Don't know if that is true or not but I do value that person's opinion though.
