Pictures of the USS Vega AF59, personnel and operations

I found this photo of the USS VEGA AF-59 from the '66-'67 WESPAC cruise. I took the picture from the starboard side of the USS HECTOR AR-7. It is very likely at the distance between the two ships that we had either recently transferred goods or were about to. I could not take the picture if it was in progress because my station would have been in after-steering. I believe we may have been enroute to Kaohsiung, Taiwan.

I had written on the back that we were with the VEGA AF-59, ASHTABULA AO-61, PARRICUTIN AE-18, and CURRITUCK AV-7. Sorry it took me over forty years to dig up the photo.
