Thanks Hans!! It is then one of these:

USS Okinawa (LPH-3)

USS Guadalcanal (LPH-7)

USS Guam (LPH-9)

USS Tripoli (LPH-10)

USS New Orleans (LPH-11)  or

USS Inchon (LPH-12)

Tripoli rings the bell...

It is deffinetly not the Iwo JIma as that one was decommissioned before I took this picture.

Cheers...

Getlemen,

I took a photo of this, I guess helicopter carrier in Vancouver in late 1990s. But I don't remember the name. Could somebody ID it?

Thanks...
