“Our latest message with the A-10 Demo Team is to promote an annual heritage paint-scheme.  This year we are inspired by the United States Navy River Rats and the F-105 Thunderchiefs of the Vietnam War. I think it’s a fitting tribute because like the A-10, the F-105 was a dominant attack aircraft.”-Technical Sergeant Brian Pontes, crew chief
