The Snapshots in Time Collection

Photographs taken from USS Ticonderoga during the Vietnam War capture carrier aircraft in flight alongside the Soviet intelligence trawlers and bombers that shadowed American task forces at sea. Together they document a quieter Cold War contest of surveillance and signals unfolding in the same waters as the shooting war in Southeast Asia.
