1Opinion of the Court

LUMBARD, Chief Judge.

Samuel Marshall and William Peterkin appeal from their convictions by a jury in the Eastern District of New York of bank robbery and aggravated bank robbery, 18 U.S.C. § 2113(a) and (d), and from their respective concurrent sentences under the same subsections. 1 We find no error in the convictions under section 2113(a) and affirm. However, we vacate the convictions under section 2113(d), since it was improper to sentence Marshall and Peterkin under both subsections 2 and because there was plain error in the trial judge’s charge as to that count.
