i was aboard sanctuary when she was recommissioned in 1966, and i do not recall a recompression chamber. i could, of course be wrong. but hyperbaric therapy was unknown at the time ( i think.), so the only use would have been for recompressing divers. bottom line, a citation is needed for this. comment is needed on the command within a coomand structure of hospital ships. this i will take care of.Toyokuni3 (talk) 01:44, 25 April 2008 (UTC) i have tagged the statement that sanctuary 'carried' 1 aircraft. i can find no no such claim in any of the references, and know from personal experience that during her first tour in nam, no helo was permanently embarked in sanctuary. nor did we have any naval aviators as part of her crew.the permanent presence of a helo aboard would hve been counterproductive, as it would have had to take off every time others arrived. the helo deck was only big enough to accomodate one at a a time.98.117.200.229 (talk) 15:52, 9 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
