USAF Class 70-08 Group Photo with A-1 Skyraider, Hurlburt Field
Class 70-08 poses in front of an A-1 Skyraider at Hurlburt Field, home of Air Commando and Special Operations pilot training. Among the ten officers pictured, Maj Albro L. 'Al' Lundy Jr. was later killed in action on December 24, 1970 -- a somber reminder of the risks these Skyraider pilots faced flying close air support and rescue escort missions over Southeast Asia.
