Tokyo Bay

There is a discrepancy between the article saying Chicago entered Tokyo Bay on 3 Sept, and http://www.history.navy.mil/faqs/faq69-2.htm, which states she was there on the 2nd. I'm adding the cat based on the FAQ.--J Clear 03:35, 6 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

1st Vietnam Deployment

edit

I have requested a reference citation for the alleged patrol craft attack. The description has some similarities to an event on the 5th Vietnam deployment in April 1972; but has some discrepancies aside from the date which make the event seem a likely sea story. The 1972 flank speed egress was from PIRAZ station rather than Yankee Station and the surface contacts causing the egress turned out to be RADAR phantoms (possibly a meteorological phenomena similar to the second 1964 Gulf of Tonkin incident) rather than real ships.Thewellman (talk) 17:12, 16 January 2014 (UTC)Reply
