A close photograph of the 'SPADS for MACVSOG' montage banner as it hung in a private home, prepared for display at a Special Operations Association reunion. The banner commemorates the Douglas A-1 Skyraider crews of the 56th Special Operations Wing's Operating Location Alpha Alpha, identified by their hog mascot and the letters OLAA. Flying from Thailand, these propeller-driven aircraft provided close air support and rescue escort for MACV-SOG reconnaissance teams working across the Laotian and Cambodian borders. Project: 219854
