The A-1 Skyraider Association
Before
After
Sometime within the past few months (Mar-May 05?) 132598 has received a new paint job. It was well
timed as the previous paint had deteriorated significantly after the "Before" picture above was taken. The new paint
scheme is the original paint scheme used for USAF Skyraiders in the 1964-1966 timeframe, both in Vietnam and
at Hurlburt Field, Florida.
Thanks to Steven Cox for the great photos!

This Skyraider is part of a display of mostly Vietnam era aircraft that were used by first the Air Commandos then
the Special Operations squadrons.

The A-1 Skyraider Association Service Activity
"The A-1 Skyraiders Association was a significant contributor to the project by helping fund our efforts.
The participation and excitement from the villagers was more than I expected. Their willingness
to do whatever it took to get the job done was evident (i.e. haul water from bottom of river). They
were genuinely proud to have a fine building and floor to school their kids. Without the A-1 Skyraider Association's
support. much of this would not have been made possible.
