This C-47 served with the 9th AF in WW2 and took part in both the D-Day and Market Garden operations in 1944. Post-war, it was based in West Germany until 1954, when it was based at Rabat, Morocco before moving again to Wheelus AB, Libya in 1956. After further service in the USA, it was retired in 1964. It was relegated to the Aberdeen Proving Grounds for target use but survived this to be used by the US Army as a training aid for CH-54 helicopters. When it was no longer required for this role, it was saved and, in October 1986, flown as an underslung load to Dover for permanent preservation.
