"....While continuing her service in the Western Pacific, Hassayampa served as replenishment vessel during the Apollo 11 recovery mission where she was on hand for replenishment duties for USS Hornet (CVS-12) and support vessels. On 22 July 1969, Hassayampa refueled USS Hornet (CVS-12) just prior to Hornet's recovery of the Apollo 11 space
capsule. The Apollo 11 mission was the first manned mission to land on the Moon.
Hornet's deck log shows this occurring on July 22, 1969, about 36 hours before Hornet picked up the Apollo 11 astronauts and crew fresh from their lunar
excursion...."
