A new 3D printed ''model'' of the US Marine''s earliest used landing craft of the Second World War. Essentially a larger version of the shallow draft Eureka boat designed to operate in swamps by Andrew Higgins before the war, they were made of plywood with armored bulkheads added to offer some protection for the troops on board.
