Photo Comment

This aircraft was built as a C-47B in 1944 with USAF serial number 43-49012 and USN Bu number 50761. It operated with the USN and the USMC from 1944 until 1962, when it was tranferred to the US Army. There, it retained the BuNo as its serial. At the time of upload it was on display at Tinker AFB, OK. In the back is another US Army aircraft, 99831. This one is ex USN too, a R4D-7 to be precise.
