National Vietnam War Veterans Day - Air Power Tribute

By Carmelo Turdo
National Vietnam War Veterans Day is commemorated on March 29 of each year, and The Aero Experience joins thankful Americans from across the country as we salute the veterans who served in any theater during the designated period of November 1,1955 to May 15, 1975. The Aero Experience presents this survey of Vietnam War-era tactical military aircraft from our previous coverage of EAA AirVenture Oshkosh. Though limited to a very few types, we include the classic Huey and Loach helicopters, O-1 and O-2 Forward Air Controllers (FACs), OV-1 Mohawk reconnaissance aircraft, Douglas Skyraider and Invader attack aircraft, the F-100 Super Sabre and the mighty F-4 Phantom II in this selection. In a small way, we keep the spirit of a generation alive and offer a belated, but no less sincere, "Welcome home."
