Squadron/Signal A-4 Walk Around

It appears that Squad/Sig has revised the layout of this book, which was first released in 2006. In reviewing the latest issue of this volume, Bart Cusumano states, "I did find an error to the caption of a photo on page 58 which describes the photo as a Marine loading an Mk-82 Snakeye, when in fact, he is loading ammo for the 20mm gun."

 

I was Editor at Squadron/Signal in 2006 and edited and designed the layout for the 2006 edition. I checked my copy, and the captions on page 58 are correct! When I designed the layout for the first edition, I used small triangles as arrows to point the captions to the corresponding photos, but the current Squad/Sig editor has removed them.

 

I note also that the current editor has resized many of the photos to make them uniformly sized. This has resulted in the cropping out of some detail in some photos.

Except as noted above, the reprint is still a good book and worth purchasing if you do not own an original issue.
