Found these and many other press photos at the flea mkt. today. From the USS Hancock in 1962. Pilot is identified as " Ensign Charles A. Gudmunson of Attack Sq. 215, flying an AD-6 "Skyraider" landed aboard the attack aircraft carrier USS Hancock (CVA-19), July 19, 1962, marking its 50,000 arrested landing. Happily smiling , Ens. Gudmunson receives congratulations from Commander G.Koen, Commander Carrier Air Group 21 aboard the huge carrier.
