Hello all, this is my first post here. I have been posting at the Armorama sister site for a while now. I am building a Skyraider for a close friend who had one save his life just before the fall of Saigon. I would like to find out about markings from that period. The only decal sheets I find are from the 1965-1966 period. Thanks for any help you can provide in advance.

I can't remember if any were left in US service (1973) at that time(being replaced in the "Sandy" role by the SLUF), if they were they were in the standard USAF SEA camo scheme. The Vietnamese were still using them
