  1. Took one of these to Thailand or Korea and it was terrible. Like living in an airplane seat for multiple days.

  2. HSV

    Transports gear and people throughtout the pacific region.

    Service members have nicknamed it “The Vomit Comet”

  3. It’s the Uss Guam at Naha military port is a HST (High speed transport) I’ve been on it a few times

  4. I’ve done deck landing on those. Great boats to land on. Huge deck, almost no superstructure. They roll pretty bad though. I’d hate to be a passenger on one

  5. USS Guam.. take the seasick pills if you get on those. It’s fast, but it does suck a lot…

    Prepare to sleep on the floor. Put one knee up, you’ll flip.
