BuNo 148305 Model by Felix Secreto
On December 22, 1965 LTJG Wendall Reed Alcorn was shot down by small arms fire while flying with VA-36 from
the USS Enterprise. He was captured and made a POW.
Felix Secreto has created a model of the A-4C that LTJG Alcorn was flying when he was shot down.
BuNo 148305 is depicted as she looked on that fateful day.












Thanks to Mr. Davis White and Mr. Ted Langworthy along with Donnie Alcorn, Don Alcorn and
of course Wendell himself (and all the others) for all the support and information.
I tried as best I could to recreate the Scooter that Ray actually flew. It was a challenge
because no aftermarket companies made the exact decals, so I mixed and matched.
