Caption: A rocket leaves its Mk-102 launcher on board the USS WHITE RIVER (LSMR-536) as its back blast lights up the deck. Sparks from another rocket, fired an instant before, filled the air. The dawn attack from off the coast of South Vietnam supported friendly troops engaged in combat against Viet Cong forces in the I corps, photo taken June 1966.
