Description
A work party strikes down pallets of ammunition after replenishment by highline transfer from the Suribachi class ammunition ship (AE) USS Haleakala (partly visible). This activity took place around the Mount 52 space onboard the Guided Missile Destroyer HMAS Hobart during operations in the Tonkin Gulf. The left dome on the turret is used as an anti-aircraft lookout while the right dome is used as manual local control for safety purposes.
