What type of boats were used for the British soldiers to travel to France in world war 1?
The USMC used the Higgins Boat, LCP-Landing Craft Personnel and LCVP (Vehicles and Personnel in the Pacific theatre). The only difference was the width of the ramp, the LCVP having a wider ramp. The British/Australians purchased some number of LCPL’s-Landing Craft Personnel Large from the Higgins factory in Louisiana.
