Special Operations Association Reunion XXXVIII, Las Vegas, 2014. An Air Force retiree, wearing a cap embroidered 'AIR FORCE / RETIRED / PROUDLY SERVED', speaks into a hand microphone from the symposium head table while a fellow panelist listens. Air Force crews were indispensable to MACV-SOG: fixed-wing strike aircraft such as the A-1 Skyraider and the helicopters of the 20th Special Operations Squadron flew the close air support, insertion and extraction missions on which SOG's cross-border reconnaissance teams depended. This is an alternate, softer rendition of a frame also held in the collection; the panelists are not identified by name. Project: 219866
