Aerial View of Ordnance Strike on Jungle Ridge, Vietnam War Era
An in-flight photograph capturing an airstrike on jungle terrain during the Vietnam War, likely taken from a close air support aircraft such as the A-1 Skyraider. Marking rounds and ordnance strikes of this kind were routinely used to mark targets for follow-on strike aircraft during forward air control and rescue escort missions. From the collection of Jax Roberts, assembled for the 2017 A-1 Skyraider reunion. Project: 219043
