Photo Comment
A C-54 of the 21st Troop Carrier Squadron 'Bee Liners', thought to have been photographed in South Korea or Japan during the Korean War. The squadron was equipped with C-54s in 1950 and again from December 1952, but operated C-46s and C-47s into Korean airstrips from its Tachikawa base in between. 42-72625 to Denmark as N-625 in 1965. To 9Q-CAU in 1978 but soon written off. Photo from: Nederlands Instituut voor Militaire Historie This photo was added on 9 June 2021, and has since been viewed 732 times.
