Army Signal OCS - Video Collection

 

     Recovery of Of Downed VNAF A-1E Skyraider      

Vietnam - 1969

Candidate Donald Fedynak (Army Signal OCS Class 04-68), who served with the 221st Signal Company (Pictorial) in Vietnam in 1969,  provided the following video. He also sent along a message saying "Here's something you might be interested in for the website… a video of footage that I shot in ‘Nam and recently edited… it’s the Skycrane recovery of a VNAF plane that went down in a rice paddy in 1969… got a pilot who flew those type of missions to narrate… there are also stills from the mission that were published in Hawk magazine… I think all our old aviators will get a kick out of it..."
