Photo Comment

This C-121 served with the 193rd Tactical Electronic Warfare Group at Olmstead AFB, PA until Nov.1977, when it was retired after 21 years to MASDC. It escaped the boneyard in August 1981 and registered N1104W but the hoped-for civilian career didn't materialise and it is now on display at the NASM Udvar-Hazy Center.
