A restored Douglas A-1 Skyraider sits on the ramp, its cockpit occupied by a pilot in period-style flight gear. The Skyraider, a rugged single-engine attack aircraft, served extensively in the Vietnam War with both U.S. and South Vietnamese Air Force squadrons, flying close air support and rescue escort missions. This photograph documents the aircraft at a veterans' commemorative gathering, preserving the memory of the men who flew and maintained the type. Project: 219944
