When this picture was taken, this Kiowa Warrior was most probably assigned to the B Troop, 2nd Squadron, 17th Cavalry Regiment "Banshee", one of two OH-58D units in the Combat Aviation Brigade of the 82nd Airborne Division based at Ft. Campbell (KY). This 559 is a refurbished Fiscal Year 1971 OH-58D. After military service, the Kiowa was placed in storage at 309th AMARG on 22 April 2015. It left the storage depot on 18 September 2017 when it was sold as scrap to HVF West at Tucson.
