A U.S. Air Force airman poses beneath the iconic "Home of the Spads" sign, a nickname affectionately given to A-1 Skyraider squadrons for the aircraft's resemblance in toughness and vintage character to the WWI-era SPAD fighter. Signs like this decorated Skyraider bases such as Nakhon Phanom, Thailand, celebrating unit pride among the pilots and airmen who flew and maintained these rugged attack aircraft during the Vietnam War.
