    Retired U.S. Air Force Lt. Col. Bill Buice, a former A-1 Skyraider pilot, poses for a photo in front of the new OA-1K Skyraider II at Hurlburt Field, Florida, April 3, 2025. The OA-1K Skyraider II takes its name from the A-1 Skyraider, which Buice flew in Vietnam from June 1967 - July 1968 before being shot down, forcing him to medically retire.
