EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken in 1967, we witness the majestic USS Yorktown (CVS-10) making her way back to the United States after an eventful Western Pacific cruise in 1966. The aircraft carrier is surrounded by a formidable fleet of escorts, showcasing the might and power of the US Navy during this historic era. As our eyes scan clockwise from the upper right corner, we can identify each ship that forms part of this protective formation. The USS Bridget (DE-1024), USS Hooper (DE-1026), USS Goldsborough (DDG-20), USS Taylor (DD-468), and USS Jenkins (DD-447) stand as loyal guardians to their flagship, ensuring its safe journey across vast oceanic expanses. The image captures a moment frozen in time - a snapshot of American history during the Vietnam War. It symbolizes unity, strength, and resilience as these naval forces navigate through uncertain waters together. With no people visible on deck or within any vessel's vicinity, it emphasizes the focus solely on maritime prowess and military strategy. This archival print serves as a reminder of past world events that have shaped our present reality. It evokes admiration for those who served aboard these vessels and pays homage to their dedication towards protecting American interests at sea. With high-angle aerial view providing us with an encompassing perspective, we are drawn into this extraordinary voyage where motion meets stillness - where history unfolds amidst waves crashing against steel hulls.
