    Names of ships on Yankee, Dixie and Gonzo stations?

    One of my hobbies is collecting waterline ship models in 1/1250 or 1/1200 scales covering the Cold War era. I have been trying to find the composition of USN units on the Yankee and Dixie Stations off Vietnam and Gonzo station in the Arabian Sea. Does anyone know a source?
