51-2151 and 51-2146, in the background, were both retired to MASDC from 340 BW at Whiteman in 1960. 51-2151 is also reported written off at Pinecastle AFB, Florida on June 26, 1954, but this is clearly incorrect. A search reveals that the aircraft lost an engine in flight on that date and suffered category 3 (Substantial) damage.
