Thanks for the video. My husband was assigned temporary active to the Ticonderoga at the time this was taken - 1966. He was assigned out of San Miguel, Philippines. Hong Kong harbor was a beautiful place and he keeps it in his memory. He told me years ago about the Aberdeen and the King Kong floating restaurants.

Thanks for the videos. My Father was on the Ticonderoga in the MM division from '68-'72. I remember him telling of going to Hong Kong once, where he bought my Mother a set of China dishes. I'll have to show him the video to see if he remembers any of this.

Thanks for posting this clip. I was living near the floating restaurant at that time. I might be one of the kid rowing the sampan, which you had captured in the video.
