Description
Douglas A-1H Skyraider of VA-25 Fists aboard the USS Midway during Rolling Thunder, the air campaign over North Korea. On June 20, 1965, four A-1H “Spads” were launched off USS Midway to find and fix the position of an F-105 Thunderchief pilot who had been shot down near Dien Ben Phu. The North Vietnamese launched a MiG-17 Fresco to shoot down the slower-moving prop-driven aircraft. The MiG-17 got slow in front of Lt. Clint Johnson’s 20 mm cannons flying as CANASTA 77 and was shot down.
