  • A friend of mine was a DJ for KTTY on board around that time - I'll see if he still has airchecks from then; it would go nice with your footage.

  • I was aboard for the fun times in 65 and 66 in the Tonkin Gulf yacht club.

    V-2 division anybody else there then?

  • cool video. USS Saratoga CV-60 V-4 Div, flight deck control. Peace

  • I was attached to VA85 (Black Falcons) during that Westpac. "Smiling" Ron Hays was the Squadron C.O. at that time. Went on to make "Four Star", I hear.

  • Very interesting footage. Many thanks!

  • This is great. Thank you

  • I'd have used "Keep the Customer Satisfied"by Simon & Garfunkel as the soundtrack.It was my Uncle Chief Petty Officer Liles E. Watters' favorite song.He served on CV-63 from 1964-69.He was a Navy fireman. He was killed by a drunk driver on 11 April 1970.

  • @Pasquinnel1 Was he ship's company or in a squadron? I was an A03 (in 1969) with VF-114 on board the Kitty Hawk

  • I to was there during the Viet Nam War for 2years 1day and 6 houds. Long hours Building bumbs and rockets by the forard mess hall. And when we pulled into port they would let a fue of us paint the side of the shop how nice of them. When i left that last hour i told them all to eat shit and choke on it.

  • Hello everyone, My dad (Jerry L .) - AO2, was on the HAWK 67-69. Did any of you guys serve with him? If so, please leave me a message here and how to contact you. Thanks! Jason
