Popis:
The U.S. Navy aircraft carrier USS Kearsarge (CVS-33) at sea, 12 December 1965. Although being an anti-submarine carrier, she has nine Douglas A-4C Skyhawk attack jets on her flight deck, as well as one Grumman S-2 Tracker anti-submarine plane.
Note: The Skyhawks wear the tail code "NG" of Attack Carrier Air Wing 9 (CVW-9). This wing, however, was assigned to USS Enterprise (CVAN-65) for a deployment from Norfolk, Virginia (USA) to Alameda, Califronia (USA), and from there then to Vietnam from 26 October 1965 to 21 June 1966.
