Entered service with the US Army Air Force around 1943 as 43-48608. To the Belgian Air Force as K11 (and markings OT-CWF). To the French Air Force as 348608. Later to F-RAMB and F-RAOO, but I'm not sure if this was with a private owner or as code with the Air Force. To the Israeli Defense Force as 016 with markings 4X-FNN. Exported to the USA and became N47SJ in September 1999.

Five USAF marked Dakotas, all with invasion stripes get ready to take off to drop parachutists over the Normandy beaches in a re-enactment of the momentous events of 75 years earlier. These parachutists would be landing in daylight with friendly crowds and without heavy equipment unlike their counterparts in 1944

Five USAF marked Dakotas, all with invasion stripes get ready to take off to drop parachutists over the Normandy beaches in a re-enactment of the momentous events of 75 years earlier. These parachutists would be landing in daylight with friendly crowds and without heavy equipment unlike their counterparts in 1944

34-48608 rolled off the Douglas assembly line in the summer of 1944 and was delivered in September 1944. Too late to participate in D Day, the aircraft distinguished itself later during the Berlin Airlift where it received it's name. Pictured on display prior to the next day's departure to Gander, Canada as part of a 15 aircraft C-47 group to fly across the Atlantic to for the D Day 75th anniversary.
