The Don Englebreston Collection
Gallery: Gary Hawes Raw Scans
Candid November 1970 snapshots of A-1 Skyraider life at Da Nang Air Base, from a "Spad Party" and Lt. Larry Warren mid-celebration at the DOOM Club to pilots Mel Swanson and Bob Donaldson in their off-duty quarters and munitions troops Tom Brown and Dan Neubert over a card game. Handwritten labels name the men in frame, and a separate portrait of pilot Jim Winans being fitted into a full-pressure suit, displayed beneath a "Reunion '73" sign, shows how long these bonds outlasted the war.
