Original caption: "Plots - A crewmember of the gunboat USS Gallup plots the course to intercept a Vietnamese junk on one of the ship's Operation Market Time patrols. The Gallup arrived in Vietnam Apr. 27, 1967 as a unit of Market Time. The new, high-speed gunboat patrols along the 1,000 mile coastline of South Vietnam to prevent the infiltration of enemy men, arms and supplies to the Viet Cong ashore in South Vietnam." The camera is looking over the shoulder of a man, who is plotting on a map.
