A Few Photos

| Am sending (attachment) you a pic of AN133 burned up in the revetment at Pleiku in May 1970. I was sked out on this bird that morning, but ran for the bunker (0430) when the rockets (mortors?) came pounding in. After the attack, and after we showed up, they put us on another bird. The fire was still smoking from the 133 revetment. Ed Benningfield |

This photo shows aircraft number 547 in Korea (note: the snow). Must have
been in the very early days as not DF antenna pods are showing on the aircraft.
Also, the "Beat Army" Logo is visible on the nose. Don't ask me what it was doing
in Korea, unless they were attempting to "Recruit" som backenders on their way to
vietnam. I believe this photo was taken at Grenier Field N.H. and not in Korea. J.C. Wheeler |

"This picture appeared in a Japanese Magazine in 1975 and identified AN204 as a "P" Model stationed at 360TEWS. Actually, this aircraft was based at DaNang in 1970/71 and was identified on 362TEWS Form 5 as a "Q" model. We have no idea when the picture was taken by the Japanese magazine photographers. |

This picture is identified as an EC-47 at 360TEWS, Tail No. 4476558. However, we believe it may have been an "administrative" aircraft. Squadron (and the detachments) had one aircraft that was not configured with mission equipment. These aircraft were used for administrative purposes. |
