Reunion Guests Beneath A-1 Skyraider Propeller and Engine Cowling, Lloyd TN Air Museum, June 7, 2014

Reunion attendees gather beneath the propeller of an A-1 Skyraider, the rugged attack aircraft known to its Vietnam-era pilots as the "Spad." Skyraiders flew close air support and rescue escort missions throughout the war, including many in direct support of MACV-SOG reconnaissance teams operating deep behind enemy lines. Project: 219309
