[edit] Expansion of the History Category

I expanded the Category: History with greater detail to the Korean War, Vietnam War and history between Vietnam and the Gulf War. And expanded the details of the Gulf War, itself.

This information is accurate and in the public domain. I received this history from the Public Affairs Office of the Commander US Seventh Fleet, FPO AP 96001-6003.

I would appreciate any feedback, USN Historian 19:59, 5 August 2007 (UTC)USN Historian

[edit] Photographs

Not having the expertise to do so, I have not undertaken even an attempt at revision, but I offer a suggestion.

The second photograph on this 7th Fleet page shows the USS Princeton (CVL-23) under attack at the Battle of Leyte Gulf, during which time it was assigned to the 3rd Fleet.

Wouldn't it be better to use instead the photograph appearing third on the Wikipedia page for the USS Gambier Bay (CVE-73), depicting that vessel under bombardment during the Battle off Samar? At that time, Gambier Bay was a component of 7th Fleet (Task Unit 77.4.3, commonly known by its radio call sign of "Taffy 3"). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.204.79.85 (talk) 12:49, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
