Posted on 29 Jan 2021
Il y a 77 ans, le 29 Janvier 1944, un Douglas C-47A construit dans l'usine Douglas de Long Beach, en Californie, est délivré à l'U.S. Army Air Force. Son numéro constructeur est le c/n 19539 et il lui est attribué le numéro de série 43-15073.
Envoyé en Angleterre pour les futures opérations sur le théâtre européen, il est assigné au 95th Troop Carrier Squadron du 440th Troop Carrier Group.
Son équipage lui donne alors le surnom "The SNAFU Special".
JOYEUX ANNIVERSAIRE "SNAFU SPECIAL" !
