Description

The Guided Missile Destroyer HMAS Hobart on Sea Dragon operations in the Gulf of Tonkin. The ship is photographed from the after part looking forward along the port side. The USN T3-S2-A3 fleet oiler USS Mispillion is shown on her port profile. As ammunition pallets are visible on the Australian warship, it is possible that an underway replenishment has just been completed.
