I hear from one man that in Vietnam war one Skyraider was hit with AA rocket fired from MiG-21 and after that safely return home. Any more info about this?

I have not heard of a Skyraider with a missle. There is a famous photo of a F-105 returning from a mission with a missle stuck in the aft fuselage.
Someone might have it to post.

We should hear from Eric (aka Ed Owning) about this. He has a tremendous amount of stories about Skyraiders, some of them may even be true!!!!!
