Film footage my father took while aboard the aircraft carrier Valley Forge CVA-45 during the Korean conflict 1953. The music might be considered a bit over the top, maybe. If it not to your taste , please turn the volumn down a tad. Sound track credits: Anchors weigh (Navy): University of Michigan Band Stars and Stripes Forever: The Lincoln Memorial Orchestra.

There were just five of us so we had to switch off with the camera then edit together two photos in Photoshop. Lot of steps doing it the hard way to create the video.

liked up!1!cool video!!connected!
What is Top Bond B comprised of? Is it purchased or made in house?
nice work, can you tell us why you heat the holes?
I'll refer you to the narrated version of this video. I believe the answer is there. ua-cam.com/video/HLmjmUPlqfo/v-deo.html
...it would be great for my understanding when you can tell me the use of the casted part. Thx !!
As noted in a reply to mr.smileyken6364, "They are heater plate components for plastic pipe welding equipment." How they exactly work is unknown, but I’m guessing the pipe is rather large diameter.
Funny stuff.
I remember this one! But without the light speed guitar track…
I kept speeding it up a little at a time until the copyright algorythum didn't reconise it anymore just to see if it would ever work - beating the algorhythum. Took three trys until it would post.
You’re a speed-music pirate now? 😮
Did you send this? Impressive, but difficult as a teaching tool…
1:24, Were those two rectangular walls radar? I remember seeing something similar in Thailand too. I was at the 330th briefly in 1970 and again for 3 months in 1971 and don't remember seeing those. 3:04, more radar seen through the windshield? 6:00 , Working casual status for 330th RR Co. supply I drove equipment to Cam Rahn Bay for about 3 months June - August 1971. Equipment was transferred out of country. 6:13, I don't remember that pontoon bridge. There may have been a concrete one when I drove there. That video, I think, is the best quality home video that I have seen from Vietnam. Good job.
Hey Radio Chaser, Thanks for the comments. Those "wall antennas” were for communications as far as I have gathered. Some relayed to the Philippines as I was told. There was a group of them right next to our flight line. Scroll down through the comments you’ll find comments about the 21st signal battalion and others about said antennas. Thanks for the kind comments on the video.
@55 I did scroll down, but don't remember seeing any comments. I will have to go back and look again. Unless, those are the "billboard" antennas? Thanks.
Thanks for the video. I served in the "Valley" during the mid 1960s when she was an LPH during the Viet Nam War. Great ship!
Good to hear from you. I'm a Nam vet, Army fixed wing. ua-cam.com/video/iJni40VJjvg/v-deo.html
My first cousin "Andy" Nadeau was a Photog Mate aboard her throughout the Korean War. Great photos of Panthers, war and damage footage.
Would like tto see some of those if possiable. I suppose the military has them all.
I wish our Christmas cleanup was that fast! I enjoyed watching your efficiency; another fun fast-forward video. Happy New Year 👍
I had it fairly easy with the cleanup on New Year’s Day. Karen did the tree decorations. The big cleanup was Christmas day from Christmas Eve gathering. Some 15 adults 6 screaming kids, minestrone with everyone bringing finger goodies, the cutthroat gift exchange, singing and kid performance, dollar gifts and visit from Santa handing out some kid gifts. All the kids are past Santa age but the tradition continues. The lights on the tree was the last thing. Happy New Year, and yes, we got your card!
How cool it would be just to hang with you guys for a day😂
Wow!
First! Fred says, nice work, Rex. I’m surprised it took what, 41 years?
Thank you for posting this. It brings back good memories. I was Commo, 144th Aviation June 1969 to JUNE 1970. It was a good time to be there with a lot of good people.
My ears hurt from just watching your demonstration!!
You should have a pair of virtual ear plugs- you being a retired cop. Oh, hear is a pair for the next time you may find yourself in a similar situation.🥸
Ah the memories!! I served with the 498th Air Ambulance Company in Nha Trang late in 1966. This was a time of transition for a lot of Army equipment. The piston era was still going strong, but the turbines were rising! I left the Nam before the Tet offensive. I was wondering how all of the guys from my old unit felt about standing in line to draw their weapons from locked conex containers while the battle raged around them. I don't mean to be funny, but that's the way it was. I imagine the policy changed after the Tet.
bravóóó
Pretty good I think for a small set up like that.l love metal of all kinds by the way ❤.
Hmm I would think a pour like that wouldn't turn out good
Wow I'm very impressed
👏💪👍🔥💯
Love the huge pour! So many questions....How long did you have the torches on the sprues? Was that green sand or oil based? Did you heat the molds to harden them or simply to remove moisture? What was the liquid you sprayed on the mold? Finally, what was the part for? Thanks for you time.
The torches were on the risers for about 2 hours, until the metal level stopped dropping. I used a green sand. I didn't heat the molds, I was just burning off the solvent in the mold spray. The mold spray is called Top Bond B, it hardens the top layer of sand so it doesn't wash around in the mold. They are heater plate components for plastic pipe welding equipment.
@@collinsurbert212 thanks for covering all my questions! That will help me if future casting as I have attempted pouring a brass bell and have 2/6 successes so far.
Fred from the Wizards Treasure Map likes this video 👍
My dad was on board the at this time as a chief mechanus mate in the engine room. I was six years old at the time. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you for checking in. Likewise I was 6yrs. old. I remember when he came home. As you might have gathered, Dad was a crew chief on a Cousair.

Did he have a chance to see the UFO that supposedly hovered over the Air Force outdoor movie theater in 1966 and shut down all the power in the vicinity? Who would really want to admit it if it actually happened anyhow? www.ufocasebook.com/1966vietnam.html

I was with the 144 van rr co. As a c/c on a ru 8d . I spent 1/2 my time in Na Trang and the other tdy up north with the 1st cab . March 67 / 68 Mike De Gloria
The name seems familiar somehow. We must have crossed paths at some point.
At least someone was following you, constantly playing some good beats everywhere you went! 🤪😜
I could tell they were enjoying themselves. Thanks, I'll let them know.
I was a SkyCop at Tan Son Nhut 3/69-4/70! Lived across the street from Hotel One! Never ending helicopter operations! Army 69th Signal compound was next door near the Radar towers. We were young and I'd do it all over, only better! Thank all of you for your service.
Do it all over again but beter. Now that is good service, Thanks for it.
Did your father also serve on USS PHILIPPINE SEA CVA-47? At 1:55 in the video it seems to show an F9F of VF-92 from the CVA-47 1954 cruise. Do you have more footage that didnt make your final edit? Would love to see. Limited options of contacting you, only through comments. Regardless, thanks again for uploading this gift.
He did serve some time aboard the Philippine Sea. He liked to put subjects together on the same reel. There is supposedly a way to direct message someone from here but it changes and is somewhat complicated. I do have some other footage of a giant cake in the form of an aircraft carrier celebrating so many landings on board. I will eventually to make direct contact. I have been meaning to try for some time but always get sidetracked.
Thank you for uploading the footage. My grandfather flew F4U-4 Corsairs with VF-92 on this cruise. They wear an 'N' tail code. Color footage of CVA-45 on this deployment is rare. At the beginning the ship is pulling out of San Diego, not Alameda. This took place November 20 1952. Great video by the Chief.
Oh lord it’s a commune of witches.
Hav 54 signal battalion 67 -68 yet 4 days left when try hit
So what was Tet like for you in Nha Trang? Never heard much about how it all came down.
Served there from '70-'71 with the 55th M.I Detachment to IFFV Headquarters, Bunked at McDermont compound and worked at IFFV compound located on beach road. Loved the parties at the beach and snorkeling around Hon Tre Island.
Thanks for the info. Not so bad duty for Nam eh.

Good seeing Nha Trang RR. Thanks for your service. Viet Vet I Corp. 8RRFS, Phu Bai/Hue/Khe Sanh 1967-1969
Thank you too buddy
Happy Veterans Day! You brought back some memories of my time in Nha Trang (70-71). Welcome back home!
Glad to see you made it.
who were you with? I was with 330th RR Co in Nha Trang and Det 3 of the the 330th at Phu Cat, Vietnam 9/70 to 9/71.
WOW! Rex, that was fascinating and fast. Too much caffeine? Looked like you had done this once or twice before? Nice piece.
Wanted it to go as fast as I could. I see some place I could tighten it up some more.😄
I visited in 2017 just same time as us navy came back to cam ran bay to deal with it conscience hurry up before history is gone guys
I was at the 138th Avn (RR) as a 05H
Outstanding camera work and editing. A rare view of a first person visual account of arrival, duty, and departure.
Thanks, Glad you likedd it.
Welcome Home
My grandpa was stationed in Nha Trang in 1967, Tan Son Nhut and Da Nang in 1970 on his 2nd tour USAF, was a mechanic
Yea, 1967 - 50 some years ago today. Back then in 1967, "50 years ago" would have been 1917. MY grandpa was in the Army in France. 100 some odd years ago. Deja vu all over again.
ROKs used to have a game. Dodge the jelly fish.
The U.S. Army Green Beret were stationed at Camp McDermott in Nha Trang in November, 1966, right? That's when I arrived in Nha Trang with the 459th Signal Battalion via the USS Upshur from Oakland, a three-week-long voyage. I remember watching a line of Green Beret helicopters taking off one at a time and then making a sharp left turn over the perimeter fencing and then heading out over the rice paddies near sunset. That was an awesome sight for a newbie, one I'll always remember.
They were still there in 1971.
I was with the strategic communication next to the two microwave with Nha Trang signal battalion. 67/68 I also remember Tet,. Puff the magic dragon, enough flares it was daylight, 2 C130s blown up and 6 nights of small arms fire. Please take care of yourself
I was with the 21st Signal Group from Jan69 to Aug69. The 21st was next door to the Nha Trang Signal Battalion. The HHD and Aviation Detachment had our Hooches within about 200 yards of those two Tropo Towers that the NT Signal Bn operated. I was with the 21st Signal Group's Aviation Detachment and I worked as their Aviation Parts & Tech Supply guy (E5). We were working at the Airbase, right next to the 144th Aviation and the STRATCOM Long Lines Signal at the Airbase. The Long Lines signal guys worked at the base of those six 60 foot tall tropo towers. The Long Lines guys and the Nha Trang Signal guys worked in different service fields and they were not associated with each other, other than they reported up to the same Command Unit, the 1st Signal Brigade, down new Saigon.
