Home is The Hunter

The USS "Constellation" CVA-64 was commissioned on October 27, 1961, the second ship in the Kitty Hawk class and weighing a little less than a supercarrier at 83,000 tons. In June 1964, the "Connie" took station off the coast of Vietnam with Air Wing Fourteen aboard. She would be assigned to the area on seven separate occasions, her final deployment concluding with combat operations in August, 1973. On July 1 of that year, she and her crew were awarded the Presidential Unit Citation for their performance during the 1971-72 crises. The "Constellation" and her proud crew still serve our country today.
