	90k	The fleet oiler USS Guadalupe (AO-32) refueling the Australian guided missile destroyer HMAS Hobart (D39) in the spring of 1967. HMAS Hobart was taking part in Operation "Sea Dragon". During the Vietnam War, "Sea Dragon" was a series of naval operations beginning in 1966 to interdict sea lines of communications and supply going south from North Vietnam to South Vietnam, and to destroy land targets with naval gunfire. The primary purpose of Sea Dragon forces was the interception and destruction of water borne logistic craft (WBLC), which ranged in size from large self propelled barges down to small junks and sampans.

	139k	Picture showing missile damage to HMAS Hobart after being attacked during a friendly fire incident by a USAF F-4 Phantom II, 17 June 1968. The original caption read "After funnel area. Rod warhead damage. Looking forward. Eleven men were in the compartment where that slash is. Metal and equipment went everywhere. The opposite bulkhead is speckled with pockmarks. No one was hurt! Large object in foreground is boat davit. Other one doesn't show, it was flattened." Hobart was hit by three Sea Sparrow missiles in close succession, killing two crewmen and injuring seven others. Hobart was only one of several vessels attacked by 7th Air Force aircraft during 16-17 June. PCF-19 was sunk, and USS Boston (CAG-1) also hit. USS Edson (DD-946), USCGC Point Dume (WPB-82325) and PCF-15 were also attacked, but fortunately not damaged. The official conclusion was that the aircraft were unable to differentiate the radar signatures of warships and hovering helicopters. North Vietnamese helicopters were reportedly operating in the vicinity.		Robert Hurst / Dave Wright
