History in Transit

A C-5 Galaxy from Dover Air Force Base, Delaware, waits for a very special cargo on the flightline of Edwards Air Force Base, California, Dec. 19. The C-5 was loaded with the majority of a disassembled C-119B “Flying Boxcar” for transportation to the Air Mobility Command Museum at Dover AFB. This airplane, tail number 48-0352, was one of several that played a direct role in the Battle of Chosin Reservoir in the Korean War in 1950. The aircraft will eventually be restored to its Korean War era configuration and displayed at the AMC Museum. (U.S. Air Force photo by Christopher Ball)
