The Air Force urges active duty officers to volunteer for a 12 month tour in Viet Nam with emphasis on pilots for the Skyraider and other aircraft. About 90 officers volunteer monthly, but the service seeks more and notes combat time helps career records. Volunteers train at Hurlbut Field Florida before deployment and may extend tours.
