A pretty good snapshot by a soldier who went on rest and recuperation. 51-3853 to Air America as H-3 in Laos in 1960. Written off on 26 May 1960 when it made a forced landing and could not be recovered due to guerilla activity. This photo was added on 24 January 2025, and has since been viewed 131 times. |
