Photographer R.A. London - Real serial 64-0507 operated by 1 SOS / 18 TFW- C-130E delivered to USAF Sep64. Struck off inventory 31Dec64. Transferred to'another agency' (CIA), and sanitized (stripped of all identifying marks and data plates to ensure deniability if the plane was lost on discrete operations). Registered N76694 - The plane was renumbered and brought back into the USAF inventory as 63-7785. This aircraft had actually been destroyed during the Vietnam War, and official records were altered to show that it had been repaired and placed back into service as a MC-130E Combat Talon
