DVD Content USS Bon Homme Richard (CVA-31) 1970 Tonkin Gulf This DVD contains the actual, uncut footage that was filmed by a crewman serving on USS Bon Homme Richard (CVA-31) during the 1970 Vietnam WESTPAC Cruise A fantastic look into Naval Aviation (NAVAIR) during the Vietnam War -Very unique, never before seen footage- Great footage of several types of aircraft UNREP scenes and leisure scenes from the flight deck Great launch and recovery sequences that were very well filmed. Some of the best I have seen Excellent liberty sequences from the far east, including Japan, Hong Kong and Singapore The footage has not been edited. It has been left exactly as it was captured from the 8mm films Over 45 minutes running time NOTE: A couple of scenes may show people moving around a bit faster than normal (liberty scenes), due to the camera speed when filmed.

Our heritage MUST be preserved. As a veteran read more
