Built as A-26B 41-39596, this Invader served the ANG through the 1950s and in 1965 was rebuilt as a B-26K by On-Mark Engineering, with modified fuselage and tail, strengthened wings, improved engines, reversible propellers and wing-tip fuel tanks. By mid-1966 it had been assigned to the 1st SOW at Eglin AFB, FL and on deployment to Nakhon Phanom RTAFB for combat over Vietnam, was referred to as an A-26A as the Thais would not allow ops by bomber aircraft. Returned to US Oct 1979, registered N268G in 1971, C-GXTF in 1977 and N22939 in 1978. Raced as "Mojave Kid", flown to USAFM in Nov 1988

Operation Creek Party, in which ANG and AFRes tankers supported active duty USAF and NATO units in Europe, ran for 10 years from 1967. The Stratofreighter on display at NMUSAF was converted in 1965 from KC-97G by the addition of two J47 jets to KC-97L and was flown by the 160th ARG, Ohio ANG when it participated in this operation. In June 1973, the mayor of Zeppelinheim, a town near Rhein-Main AB in West Germany, christened it in his town's honour. Having made a star appearance at the 1974 Air Tattoo at RAF Greenham Common, it was flown to the museum two years later
