Is the term/designation/call sign "Sandy" still used today or was it only used during Vietnam for the old Skyraider Sandy's?

I mean, no one today is flying straight into thickets of SAM sites to protect a downed pilot like in those days (thankfully because opposition on that scale doesn't currently exist in our current obligations, that I'm aware of), so my guess is 'no'?

At any rate, talk about terrifying stuff....Outside of the military, did those guys ever get their recognition for doing such dangerous and selfless flying?
