Italian comment translation Volando sotto il controllo radar di un EB-66 Destroyer, alcuni Republic F-105 Thunderchief USAF bombardano un bersaglio militare nel Nord Vietnam attraverso nuvole basse in una missione pathfinder (nella stagione dei monsoni non c'era modo di avere visibilità dei bersagli, gli EB-66 guidavano, grazie al loro radar, i bombardieri fino al bersaglio, dove questi sganciavano alla cieca in seguito alla segnalazione dell'aereo guida). 14 Giugno 1966, foto scattata dal tenente colonnello Cecil J. Poss, 20th TRS USAF, da un RF-101 Voodoo.
