A January 1970 unit newspaper article, "A-1H Pilots Aid 5....", recounts a harrowing rescue in which Captain Karre's flight of A-1 Skyraiders provided continuous covering fire on both sides of a downed Army helicopter, allowing an unarmed 'Dustoff' medevac to safely extract five survivors under fire. This first-person account illustrates the vital rescue escort role Skyraider pilots played throughout the Vietnam War. Project: 219421
