Description
English: The U.S. Navy aircraft carrier USS Oriskany (CV-34) moored at Yokosuka, Japan, circa in 1952-1953, along with a Commencement Bay-class escort carrier. US-built Tacoma-class frigates are visible in the background. Note the dusting of snow on the flight deck, loaded with Douglas AD Skyraiders and Grumman F9F Panthers of of Carrier Air Group 102 (CVG-102, redesignted CVG-12 on 4 February 1953). The emergency conning station is barely discernible under the overhang of the flight deck, just abaft the Mark 63 director controlling her two foremost twin 3"/50s. Oriskany, with assigned CVG-102, was deployed to Korea from 15 September 1952 to 18 May 1953.
