A-1 Skyraider Squadron Building No. 719 "SPAD" with Mounted Propeller Trophy
Squadron building 719, marked simply "SPAD", the nickname A-1 Skyraider crews affectionately used for their propeller-driven attack aircraft. The crossed propeller mounted on the wall served as both decoration and unit pride, a fitting emblem for the men who flew this rugged, veteran aircraft in Vietnam. Project: 218905
