See Snake Eyes Nose Art here
 
With the use of the air brush, Rattlin Rita gets a face lift. The new design for the nose art on the VMFA-323 Death Rattlers F-4B Phantom takes shape. This F-4 flew 273 missions in Vietnam doing close air support for the troops on the ground as well as strikes up in North Vietnam. The VMFA-323 pilots and crews were called "Snakes" and that is where the name for the nose art started. She's a tribute to all Snakes, past, present, and future.
