Da Nang Habor 1966 - 1969?

I am working on an appeal for my late husband who served on the Kitty Hawk for 2 tours from 1966 to 1969. Where do I look to find out if the Kitty Hawk was in the Da Nang Harbor? Tom talked about it much but I need proof. I am appealing the case because I cannot prove he set foot on ground in Vietnam, though he was on Flight Deck duty. He told me one story where he was told to get into a helicopter to fly over and help bring in wounded from Vietnam, again no record. In 2009 he passed away at the age of 62-Lung Cancer, Prostate Cancer, Diabetes II, Hepatitis and the only claim they granted was for his PTSD.
So if anyone has any information about my question above or who remembers Thomas A. Weber please let me know. Thank you
