Re: Seeking Witness to the FIRST_ USS Kitty Hawk... Race Riot in 1971 ....( Not the SECOND one in 1
Charles,
The deployment you are refering to Nov/Dec 1970 was my first cruise aboard the Kitty Hawk and I don't recall any riot. Not that my memory is perfect anymore :) Could you explain a bit more?

Hello,
I was a marine aboard the ship at that time, and we responded to a fight in and outside the chow hall. That is probably what they are calling a riot you heard about. I know of no other incident unless it was taken care of by the division it happened in. Semper Fi, Ray
