One of the crowd-pleasers at the annual Oshkosh fly-in and air show is the sweeping formation of T-28 Trojans, advanced military trainers of the 1950s and 1960s that were also used as armed counterinsurgency aircraft in Vietnam. Hundreds of the type survive in private hands and dozens of them flock to Oshkosh every year.

When I was stationed at Keesler AFB (MS)in the very early 70s, the T-28s were used to train Vietnamese pilots there. At the time, it was the only flight activity at a largely tech school base.
