Photo Comment

1952 Vintage ex US Marine Corps 131695. Withdrawn to MASDC in 1973 before being sold to Pacific International Foods in 1981 for fish hauling in Alaska. Withdrawn from use and stored at Anchorage in the mid 1980s. Still current on the US register at Palmer, Alaska and although well cared for by its owner, has not flown for many years.
