Thanks to Robert H. Parker, then serving aboard USS Kitty Hawk, who recently sent these three photos of Hubbard for use on our web site. The photos were taken in the Tonkin Gulf, March or early April 1966 with Task Force 77.5
"Back in the mid 60's I was on USS Kitty Hawk and took a bunch of 35mm half-frame slides. All these years later, I finally got around to having them scanned into digital format. I believe the attached photos are of the Hubbard; tough to read the bow number but I think it's 748. The pics were taken in spring of 1966 during a photo-op gathering in the Gulf of Tonkin of all of Task Force 77 - 4 or 5 carrier battle groups and all of their support ships. I though these shots were interesting because
Hubbard looked like she couldn’t make up her mind on whether to fly or submerge."
