Taken on strength by the USAF in 1952 as 51-12386 and later transferred to the Army, then the South Vietnamese Air Force, retaining the same serial. Struck off in 1970, there was then some uncertainly about the aircraft's real identity when it was civilianised, eventually emerging as N305BD (with confirmed c/n 22761) in a light grey USAF scheme after 1979. The current USMC colours are a fairly recent development.
