A-1 Skyraider (Tail Code 6T-065) in Flight Near Airfield, Vietnam War Era
A Douglas A-1 Skyraider banks over a Vietnam airfield, its rugged airframe and heavy ordnance capacity making it a mainstay of close air support and combat rescue escort ("Sandy") missions. Squadrons such as the 1st and 6th Special Operations Squadrons flew the Skyraider extensively from bases like Pleiku throughout the Vietnam War. Project: 219008
