51-3823 C-118A Liftmaster
This C-118 receives attention at Rhein-Main Air Base, Frankfurt, West Germany. Three C-47s, one with engines running, are also parked close by.
51-3823 was later based at Wiesbaden with C Flight of the 7405th Support Squadron and for a number of months in 1965 wore the false tail number 13842. It has been speculated that this was for certain CIA support operations.
