ARTIFACT: This is a 1967 United States Navy book on the deployment of the USS Constellation (CVA-64) supercarrier to Yankee Station in the Gulf of Tonkin, Vietnam during 1967. The Constellation, along with USS Ticonderoga, had previously been the first aircraft carriers to carry out bombing strikes, and the Constellation would also be the last US carrier vessel to do so in 1973. The book has many candid as well as formal photographs, in black and white and color, documenting the ship's activities from April to December of 1967. The book was published by Walsworth of Marceline, Missouri.
