Here are 2 profiles recently completed, and can be viewed on my web site; www.stephenmudgett.com , where I offer both custom-made and off-the-shelf artwork and prints.

The title profile is an A-4C Skyhawk (BuNo.147823) of VA-12 during the 1964 Mediterranean deployment of the U.S.S. Franklin D. Roosevelt (CVA-42). This Aircraft was flown by LCDR Frank Mudgett, my father.

A-4E Skyhawk

The profile below is an A-4E Skyhawk (BuNo.150059) of VA-12 during the 1965 Mediterranean deployment of the U.S.S. Franklin D. Roosevelt. This Aircraft was flown by CDR Bob Frosio, Executive Officer of VA-12 at this time. CDR Frosio went on to become VA-12's Skipper, during the squadron's first war cruise. CDR Bob Frosio lost his life in a mid air collision with another A-4, while returning from a strike in North Vietnam, in 1966.
