Summary

Description
English: "I took this photo of the USS General H. H. Arnold from the deck of the tug YTB-783 as she was approaching Naval Station Adak, Alaska. The photo was taken sometime between February of 1976 and August of 1977 as that was the duration of my assignment on the island. The Arnold came in and out of Adak regularly during that time. The ship only entered the harbor under heavy cloud cover (easy to find on Adak) or most often at night, took on fuel, and always left before daybreak. The captain appeared to be a Navy captain, but the crew appeared to be civilian, judging by their lack of uniforms, haircuts, beards, age, etc. --Brian M. Godfrey"
[I served as the ship's doctor on the Arnold in the summer of 1978 and remember calling at Adak very well. The crew was a mixture of Navy, Air Force (critical for the missile tracking mission off the coast of Kamchatka) and civilian - plus US Army Russian language interpreters). Our Captain had been a Torpedoman 3rd Class at Pearl Harbor, during the Japanese attack in 1941 - and was a consummate mariner. -- COL Tom Allred, US Army (ret.)]
Date February 1976-August 1977
