FLY NAVY - VIETNAM
DEDICATED JANUARY 12, 1990
The Russian-designed MiG-17 and the American-designed McDonnell Douglas F-4 are famous fighters that were adversaries during the Vietnam War. The museum's F-4 Phantom is historic in that this the aircraft in which then LT. Randy "Duke" Cunningham and then LT. jg Bill Driscoll got their first two kills. They would eventually get three more kills to become the U.S. Navy's only aces of the Vietnam War. These two famous fighter aircraft are displayed here as symbolic of all who served in Naval Air units during the Vietnam War.
