Larry Warren, a Vietnam-era A-1 Skyraider veteran, speaks during a panel session at the 2014 Special Operations Association Reunion (SOAR) Symposium. His flight suit bears unit patches referencing the "Sandy" rescue-escort callsign and "Spad," the enduring nickname for the propeller-driven A-1, alongside American and Thailand flag patches marking service flown from Southeast Asian bases in support of combat search and rescue and MACV-SOG operations.
