Photo Comment

The Air Logistics Center at Warner Robins assumed responsibility for all USAF C-119s until final type retirement in the 1970s. This C-119C on display at the Museum of Aviation was delivered to the USAF in Oct. 1951 and served until being retired in 1966 and it's subsequent acquisition by the museum in 1986.
