USS Repose (AH 16) is seen in this aerial photo off of South Vietnam. Sailors can be seen waiting by the helo deck as they anticipate the photographer’s helicopter to land. The white paint scheme is quite striking against the blue water. Repose and its sister ship USS Sanctuary (AH 17) played a crucial role in expanding medical capabilities and treatment for American forces, as well as for the Vietnamese.
