The F-105 was a fantastic aircraft that adapted to many different scenarios which it was not necessarily designed for. Everything from SEAD to CAP to tactical bombing.
It's very sad and frustrating though to see how many losses were due to poor command and control. Asking Thuds to destroy a steel and concrete bridge with only a cannon or demanding bombs be dropped from 10K feet meant more passes and thus more losses. There are a lot of great books about the Thud and its pilots. Here are a few I'd suggest.
