390th TFS in DaNang

The 390th Tactical Fighter Squadron (390th TFS), known as the "Wild Boars," was deployed to Da Nang Air Base, South Vietnam, during the Vietnam War. Arriving in 1965, the squadron was equipped with F-4C Phantom II fighter-bombers and played a critical role in air superiority, ground attack, and close air support missions. The 390th TFS participated in major operations such as Rolling Thunder and Linebacker, striking key enemy targets in North Vietnam and Laos. The squadron earned a distinguished reputation for its effectiveness and bravery before rotating out of Da Nang in 1972.
