Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By djohn: Another Vietnam era Skyraider photo: https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/28207/A-1H_Skyraider_of_VA-25_with_toilet_bomb-3237721.jpg Via Wikipedia: A U.S. Navy Douglas A-1H Skyraider (NE-572, BuNo 135297) "Paper Tiger II" (which was a temporary name used for just this one flight) of Attack Squadron 25 (VA-25) "Fist of the Fleet" being readied for a mission over the Mekong Delta aboard the aircraft carrier USS Midway (CVA-41), in October 1965. VA-25 was assigned to Attack Carrier Air Wing Two (CVW-2) aboard the Midway for a deployment to Vietnam from 6 March to 23 November 1965. To commemorate the mark of having delivered 6,000,000 lb. (2721.56 to) of ordnance NE-572 was equipped with a special "bomb", a toilet! The toilet was a damaged toilet, which was going to be thrown overboard. One of the plane captains of VA-25 saved it and the ordnance crew made a rack, tailfins and nose fuse for it. VA-25 personnel maintained a position to block the view of the Air Boss and the ship's Captain while the aircraft was taxiing forward to the catapult. The plane was piloted by X/O CDR Clarence W. Stoddard, wingman was LCDR Robin Bacon (in NE-577, BuNo 139768, with LT Clint Johnson shot down a MiG-17 on 20 June 1965). When the "sani-flush-bomb" was dropped, it almost hit LCDR Bacon's plane due to its light weight. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/28207/va25specbomb-024b-3237722.jpg  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hd8eD6b8ovMThere's just something awesome about the Skyraider. |

 German helmet in Nam story "This helmet was sent to me by my mother, it was found by my father in the Hurtgen Forest during the Second World War. Under it, with my chin strap fastened, I wore headphones. On April 29, 1969, during an ambush, we were hit by a recoilless shell. The steel helmet saved my skull, and it seems to have been lying in that rice field west of Tam Ku ever since."
