Not a problem at all Don. As I recollect better it probably was Bien Hoa. I vaguely remember we were doing some support work further south than our usual AOP for Tricky Dick's "Cambodian Excursion" (Lost a few flight schoolmates based in IV Corps in that one. Our "intelligence" ( a misnomer if there ever was one) said there would be nothing but small arms ground fire. Then the radar directed AA that wasn't there opened up on the Cobras the first day.)
One thing I am wondering about with Murph's AD is the engine front. All the SPADs I saw had "shutters" covering the engine inlet. Is that just an AF thing?
I still have it on my list to dig out the original photos. My "need to know" is stirred up by this as well.
