Restored Douglas A-1 Skyraider 'AMERICA' on Airfield Ramp
A lovingly restored Douglas A-1 Skyraider, painted in Vietnam-era camouflage and named 'AMERICA,' sits on the ramp during an airshow appearance. The rugged, propeller-driven Skyraider served as a mainstay of close air support and combat rescue escort missions throughout the Vietnam War, prized by aircrews for its heavy ordnance capacity and long loiter time over the battlefield.
