A-1 Skyraider ('SPAD') Munitions Ground Crew Playing Cards, Da Nang, November 1970 (Gary Hawes Collection)
Off-duty munitions loading crew relax over a card game at Da Nang Air Base, November 1970. Known affectionately as 'SPAD' troops after the A-1 Skyraider's old-fashioned propeller design, these airmen were responsible for arming the Skyraiders that flew close air support missions across Vietnam.
