I remember firing some at Yakima when in VA-165...
While the answer to my original post was as I suspected: The 5" rocket was named after the Zuni indian tribe, I have never seen them except at a museum. I only shot the 2.75" which I believe we mistakenly called Zuni but now I understand them to be more correctly called the "Mighty Mouse". It is very likely that the 2.75 was the only rocket in the inventory back then. After the Forest Fire they were restricted from shipboard use for a while. IIRC, none on Midway back then, but came back by '88 to Nimitz. Was this the 2.75" or the 5"? Sparky
