Description: 1958: FJ-4B Fury of VA-55 (tail code NF) on the aft starboard elevator and an old-style "Angel" helicopter partially hidden by a radio antenna. Hard tell if it is a Dragonfly or Retriever. This was taken in the spring of 1958, possibly from the Surface Aft lookout station aboard USS Kearsarge, CVA-33.
