Identified by its handwritten label as "SPAD Munition Troops," this November 1970 snapshot captures airmen Tom Brown and Dan Neubert relaxing over a card game at Da Nang Air Base. These men were part of the ground crews responsible for loading bombs, rockets, and ammunition onto A-1 Skyraiders, the propeller-driven attack aircraft nicknamed "Spad," which flew close air support and rescue-escort missions throughout the war. Photographs like this preserve the everyday downtime of the airmen who kept the Skyraiders armed and flying. Project: 219034
