Pages from the personal flight logbook of A-1 Skyraider pilot Gary T. Hawes, recording combat sorties flown from Nakhon Phanom, Thailand, and Da Nang Air Base, Vietnam, in September and October 1970. Entry by entry, the logbook names call signs and mission types from CBU strikes and infiltration support to SOG orbits and search-and-rescue alerts, offering a rare day-by-day account of what "Spad" pilots actually flew in support of special operations forces in Southeast Asia.
