Special Operations Association Reunion, 2014. Neal Melton, Don Engebretsen and Larry Warren study the 'SPADS for MACVSOG' banner, which honors the Douglas A-1 Skyraider crews of the 56th Special Operations Wing detachment known as Operating Location Alpha Alpha. Nicknamed 'SPAD,' the piston-engined A-1 flew close air support and rescue escort for MACV-SOG reconnaissance teams operating in Laos and Cambodia.
