Special Operations Association Reunion, 21 October 2014. A candid moment at the SPADS display, seconds after a posed group photograph: an attendee steps in with a compact camera to show the others the picture he has just made. Behind them hangs the 'SPADS for MACVSOG' banner, built around a shark-mouthed Douglas A-1 Skyraider, and an orange flight party suit on the display rail. Frames like this record the ordinary sociability of a veterans' reunion as faithfully as its ceremonies. Project: 219867
