FILE - In this June 3, 1969 file photo provided by the U.S. Navy, helicopters from the U.S. Navy carrier Kearsarge hover in a search area over the stern section of the U.S. Navy destroyer Frank E. Evans, foreground left, after the ship was cut in half in a collision with the aircraft carrier HMAS Melbourne of the Royal Australian Navy during joint maneuvers in the South China Sea. Seventy-four sailors died but the Pentagon has rejected a longstanding request from survivors of the disaster to add the names of their fallen comrades to the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C., saying the accident occurred outside the Vietnam combat zone.
