Hi. I was an AK attached to VAH-7 1960 until 1964; then NAS Sanford Supply Dept.
Note, I said VAH RVAH's started 1964 The A3J-1/A5A never worked out as a bomber as you already know. Made 2 Med deployments aboard CVAN65 with 12 aircraft.
Boeing bought Rockwell (which had bought/merged with NAA) years ago. You used to be able to find a little on NAA on the Boeing webpage. Other than that anything else you might find are from individuals. We (RVAH Navy) have a fairly good presence on facebook with community pages for all the squadrons and a Vigilante history page.

Found several pictures suitable for T-shirts I've had several made locally. Everyone seems to like them!
