Flamimg Dart
Forty four years ago I was in Danang when we launched the first bombing campaigns against North Vietnam with operation Flamimg Dart. General Nuyen Cao Ky (later Premier Ky)was flying one of the A1Es (old prop planes) shown in video above and was hit by some shrapnel in the shoulder. It was only a flesh wound and he went through debriefing before receiving medical treatment.
There was much confusion, testosterone and apprehension in those days which makes very vivid memories.
