Notice the safety line track running down topside, in later years this was flush with the deck as were the torpedo loading skid legs.

Interesting: In this picture you can see the underway flag is flying. Although they are tied up next to the rescue boat.
Also, notice the aft rescue buoy. In the late 60's this was flush with the deck.

The safety cable running along topside was no longer used. Would only use this while in dry dock.
