Help me...help me...
Would someone be kind enough to tell me where I can find info regarding which USAF units flew Skyraiders in Nam and where they were based?

Ah 'preciates it.

Mudge the curiously curious :shock:

No...P-38s will always be my first love. Just got interested in Skyraiders because they're such a big brute of an aircraft.
Thanks for the info. Just what I'm looking for.

Mudge the brutish :roll:

I admit it, I too have a certain proclivity for big brutish (prop) airplanes as well. :mrgreen:

Thanks for posting the links. :)
