Used in Viet Nam! I never hear about that- maybe in early stage of war. Images are very nice!

Darn, for a minute there, I thought you were going to show some pictures of Vietnamese ladies in their 40's after much younger guys.

:D

H&MS-11, The Playboys flew them in the Fast FAC mission prior to getting their TA-4Fs.

A flying TF-9J would be a nifty warbird! I don't suppose there are any currently being restored to flying condition?
