A Douglas AD-6 Skyraider assigned to Attack Squadron VA-35 is launched by steam catapult from the deck of USS Saratoga (CVA-60) on 23 July 1958. Originally a straightforward flight deck photograph, this image was later repurposed as artwork for a novelty 'Skyraider Ale' label, reflecting the enduring affection veterans and enthusiasts hold for the rugged, propeller-driven Skyraider, which served the U.S. Navy and, later, the U.S. Air Force for decades after its 1945 debut.
