Provider Grill opens at new location
CAMP HUMPHREYS – The Provider Grill opened at its new location on June 4.
The 194th Combat Sustainment Support Battalion will continue to operate the Provider Grill at its new location, Building 1291. The dining facility had previously been the Red Dragon Inn and was operated by the 719th Military Intelligence Battalion.
Cake and ribbon cuttings were held to celebrate the occasion, and the 501st Sustainment Brigade Commander, Col. Darrell Duckworth, served as guest speaker.
“If you have ever had the opportunity to dine in a facility as excellent as the Red Dragon Inn, or the old Provider Grill, then you know what a special day this is, not just for the 194th CSSB, but for all of USAG Humphreys,” Duckworth said. “It is with great pride that the 501st Sustainment Brigade, together with the 501st Military Intelligence Brigade, have been able to renovate and transfer this consolidated dining facility. I congratulate all those who have contributed to this achievement. The opening of Provider Grill is indeed a day for celebration.”
Duckworth noted that the day marks a further strengthening of the ties between the 194th CSSB and the 719th MI.
“Today we recognize the opening of the new Provider Grill, signifying a bond between the Soldiers of the 194th CSSB and the 719th MI Battalion,” he said.
“I have all the confidence that the 194th Provider Battalion’s leadership will maintain and uphold the standard of nutrition, service and dedication previously demonstrated throughout the history of both the Provider Grill and the Red Dragon Inn. Both dining facilities have a long history of excellence. They have won awards such as the best decorated dining facility, best theme and originality, best culinary arts display and garnishments and best small dining facility. And it’s all supported by professional food service Soldiers and Korean culinary chefs.”
Duckworth noted the impact the dining facility will have on Humphreys.
“The Provider Grill will feed and nourish more than 800 Soldiers daily, with selections across all food groups,” he said.
“Holidays have been known as a specialty for this dining facility and will continue to remain so under the leadership of the Provider Battalion. With the combining of the Red Dragon Inn and Provider Grill staffs, this dining facility will be taking on a new dynamic, with almost twice as many Soldiers to support.”
Duckworth also touched on the vital role cooks play.
“The Army’s food supply specialists are some of the hardest working Soldiers in our Army today. Generally, they are the first one awake and the last one to go home,” he said. “For them, there is no such thing as the weekend. They still have a responsibility to supply and serve meals on Saturdays and Sundays. Every leader in this great Army knows the importance of chow and how it directly affects the morale of our great Soldiers.”
David Duffie, USAG Humphreys food program manager, talked about the preparation involved in the DFAC transition.
“We did a lot of corresponding with the units with regard to changing of the signs and décor items like table cloths, window shades, chair covers and DFAC account changes,” he said.
Mark Cox, United States Army Garrison Humphreys deputy commander, expressed his high expectations for the Provider Grill.
"At its new location, the Provider Grill will be filling a vital function on post and it is up to the task,” he said. “The 194th's leadership and Soldiers can be counted on to deliver delicious, nutritious meals in a vibrant setting. They have won a long line of awards and we look forward to that level of service continuing.”

The first C-120 prototype made its maiden flight in late 1949. The first production C-123 was introduced to military service in 1956. The C-123 Provider was an tactical aircraft. Early in its career the aircraft were often used as paratrooper transports. Later, in Vietnam, it flew primarily as an in-theater airlifter. It also worked with the Special Forces designated as AC-123K Gunships that were equipped with 7.62mm mini-guns, flares and night sensors. Others C-123s were employed spraying herbicides. The C-123 was retired from military service in the early 1980s.

Provider Grill opens at new location
CAMP HUMPHREYS – The Provider Grill opened at its new location on June 4.
The 194th Combat Sustainment Support Battalion will continue to operate the Provider Grill at its new location, Building 1291. The dining facility had previously been the Red Dragon Inn and was operated by the 719th Military Intelligence Battalion.
Cake and ribbon cuttings were held to celebrate the occasion, and the 501st Sustainment Brigade Commander, Col. Darrell Duckworth, served as guest speaker.
“If you have ever had the opportunity to dine in a facility as excellent as the Red Dragon Inn, or the old Provider Grill, then you know what a special day this is, not just for the 194th CSSB, but for all of USAG Humphreys,” Duckworth said. “It is with great pride that the 501st Sustainment Brigade, together with the 501st Military Intelligence Brigade, have been able to renovate and transfer this consolidated dining facility. I congratulate all those who have contributed to this achievement. The opening of Provider Grill is indeed a day for celebration.”
Duckworth noted that the day marks a further strengthening of the ties between the 194th CSSB and the 719th MI.
“Today we recognize the opening of the new Provider Grill, signifying a bond between the Soldiers of the 194th CSSB and the 719th MI Battalion,” he said.
“I have all the confidence that the 194th Provider Battalion’s leadership will maintain and uphold the standard of nutrition, service and dedication previously demonstrated throughout the history of both the Provider Grill and the Red Dragon Inn. Both dining facilities have a long history of excellence. They have won awards such as the best decorated dining facility, best theme and originality, best culinary arts display and garnishments and best small dining facility. And it’s all supported by professional food service Soldiers and Korean culinary chefs.”
Duckworth noted the impact the dining facility will have on Humphreys.
“The Provider Grill will feed and nourish more than 800 Soldiers daily, with selections across all food groups,” he said.
“Holidays have been known as a specialty for this dining facility and will continue to remain so under the leadership of the Provider Battalion. With the combining of the Red Dragon Inn and Provider Grill staffs, this dining facility will be taking on a new dynamic, with almost twice as many Soldiers to support.”
Duckworth also touched on the vital role cooks play.
“The Army’s food supply specialists are some of the hardest working Soldiers in our Army today. Generally, they are the first one awake and the last one to go home,” he said. “For them, there is no such thing as the weekend. They still have a responsibility to supply and serve meals on Saturdays and Sundays. Every leader in this great Army knows the importance of chow and how it directly affects the morale of our great Soldiers.”
David Duffie, USAG Humphreys food program manager, talked about the preparation involved in the DFAC transition.
“We did a lot of corresponding with the units with regard to changing of the signs and décor items like table cloths, window shades, chair covers and DFAC account changes,” he said.

Fairchild C-123K Provider
The C-123 was originally designed to be a glider by the Chase Aircraft Company. Fairchild Aviation inherited the design and created the Provider. The plane was designed to fly from short, unprepared runways and incorporated a rear ramp for parachute jumps, cargo drops and parachute drag unloading. The plane could carry most Army wheeled vehicles and howitzers. The C-123 was used extensively in Viet Nam as the primary Agent Orange defoliant sprayship. A modified C-123 served as General William Westmoreland's executive transport. No fuel is carried in the wings of the aircraft. All is carried in the engine nacelles or wing drop tanks to reduce the chance of fire in combat. This attributed to the Provider's relatively short combat radius.
Our C-123K is the troop transport version of the "Provider". The museum's C-123 was originally built as a B model, serial number 54-612, manufactured by Fairchild Aircraft, Hagerstown, MD, and was delivered to the Air Force on December 20, 1955 at Ardmore AFB, OK. This aircraft was flown by 10 different units assigned to the Tactical Air Command, Air Force Reserve, and a two-year stint with USAFE at Dreux AB, France, as well as nine months at Leopoldville AP, Congo, until 1965. Our aircraft was converted from a B model to a K model in 1967.
Rockwell U-9A Aero Commander
The Aero Design and Engineering Company, a subsidiary of Rockwell-Standard Corporation formed in December of 1944 in Culver City, CA, produced a twin-engined executive aircraft prototype called the Aero Commander. Its first flight was on April 23, 1948.
Aero Design and Engineering was established in Oklahoma in October of 1950 to manufacture the aircraft. The first production version was the Aero Commander 520 Transport. This version received its Approved Type Certification on January 31, 1952. The first production aircraft was delivered on February 5, 1952.
These aircraft were used primarily for VIP transport duties. Throughout the main part of its military career in the 1950s, the Aero Commander was known as the L-26. The museum's aircraft (52-6218) was an Army YL-26A liaison aircraft from 1952 until the Pentagon system for aircraft designations was overhauled on October 1, 1962, and it became a U-9A. (source: Robert F. Dorr, Air Force Times)
The museum's aircraft, S/N 52-6218, flew as a US Army U-9A and was last stationed at Fort Eustis(?), VA.
I don't have too many pictures of the bands I've been in, and stumbled across these a week ago. They were taken in the mid 90s while I was in a band called The Providers by a friend of ours. if you like the bumper stickers please go to my favorite place to buy Detroit shirts and stickers, Detroit Shirt Company ( detroitshirt.com/ ) . I get asked about the Boblo shirt I got from them all the time and LOVE their stuff - their designs change all the time so check back with them frequently.

Hij wordt hoofdzakelijk gebruikt om familie in afgelegen gebieden te bereiken. Vodafone en MTN strijden om de hegemonie. Kleinere partijen zoals Tigo, Airtel, GLO en Zain vechten voor hun aandeel in de markt middles mega billboards en verkooppunten tot in de sloppenwijken in de hoofdstad Accra. MTN maakte in 2009 een omzet van 530 miljoen euro. Het in Zuid-Afrika gevestigde bedrijf heeft een huidige marktwaarde die gelijk staat aan twee keer keer het Bruto Nationaal Product van Ghana. Het prepaid principe maakt telefonie toegankelijk voor de allerarmsten. In 2011 was het minimaal te besteden prepaidbedrag omgerekend 3,5 eurocent in een land waar het gemiddelde dagloon één euro bedraagt. Voorbereidingen van de providers zijn in volle gang om ook het betalingsverkeer via de mobiele telefoon te laten verlopen. Met de komst van de mobiele telefoon is een groot deel van de bevolking officieus in kaart gebracht.

Provider Grill opens at new location
CAMP HUMPHREYS – The Provider Grill opened at its new location on June 4.
The 194th Combat Sustainment Support Battalion will continue to operate the Provider Grill at its new location, Building 1291. The dining facility had previously been the Red Dragon Inn and was operated by the 719th Military Intelligence Battalion.
Cake and ribbon cuttings were held to celebrate the occasion, and the 501st Sustainment Brigade Commander, Col. Darrell Duckworth, served as guest speaker.
“If you have ever had the opportunity to dine in a facility as excellent as the Red Dragon Inn, or the old Provider Grill, then you know what a special day this is, not just for the 194th CSSB, but for all of USAG Humphreys,” Duckworth said. “It is with great pride that the 501st Sustainment Brigade, together with the 501st Military Intelligence Brigade, have been able to renovate and transfer this consolidated dining facility. I congratulate all those who have contributed to this achievement. The opening of Provider Grill is indeed a day for celebration.”
Duckworth noted that the day marks a further strengthening of the ties between the 194th CSSB and the 719th MI.
“Today we recognize the opening of the new Provider Grill, signifying a bond between the Soldiers of the 194th CSSB and the 719th MI Battalion,” he said.
“I have all the confidence that the 194th Provider Battalion’s leadership will maintain and uphold the standard of nutrition, service and dedication previously demonstrated throughout the history of both the Provider Grill and the Red Dragon Inn. Both dining facilities have a long history of excellence. They have won awards such as the best decorated dining facility, best theme and originality, best culinary arts display and garnishments and best small dining facility. And it’s all supported by professional food service Soldiers and Korean culinary chefs.”
Duckworth noted the impact the dining facility will have on Humphreys.
“The Provider Grill will feed and nourish more than 800 Soldiers daily, with selections across all food groups,” he said.
“Holidays have been known as a specialty for this dining facility and will continue to remain so under the leadership of the Provider Battalion. With the combining of the Red Dragon Inn and Provider Grill staffs, this dining facility will be taking on a new dynamic, with almost twice as many Soldiers to support.”
Duckworth also touched on the vital role cooks play.
“The Army’s food supply specialists are some of the hardest working Soldiers in our Army today. Generally, they are the first one awake and the last one to go home,” he said. “For them, there is no such thing as the weekend. They still have a responsibility to supply and serve meals on Saturdays and Sundays. Every leader in this great Army knows the importance of chow and how it directly affects the morale of our great Soldiers.”
David Duffie, USAG Humphreys food program manager, talked about the preparation involved in the DFAC transition.
“We did a lot of corresponding with the units with regard to changing of the signs and décor items like table cloths, window shades, chair covers and DFAC account changes,” he said.
Mark Cox, United States Army Garrison Humphreys deputy commander, expressed his high expectations for the Provider Grill.
"At its new location, the Provider Grill will be filling a vital function on post and it is up to the task,” he said. “The 194th's leadership and Soldiers can be counted on to deliver delicious, nutritious meals in a vibrant setting. They have won a long line of awards and we look forward to that level of service continuing.”

They have won a long line of awards and we look forward to that level of service continuing.”
During World War II, both Great Britain and Germany had experimented with very large glider designs (the Hamlicar and Gigant, respectively) capable of carrying tanks. Though glider assaults had varied results during the war, the US Air Force briefly considered resurrecting the idea in 1948, and commissioned Chase Aircraft to build a large glider, the XCG-20 Avitruc. The XCG-20 was of all-metal construction, with a fully-equipped flight deck and a rear-mounted loading ramp for vehicles to be driven directly into the fuselage. The USAF abandoned the idea of glider assaults soon after the first XCG-20 was completed, but Chase had anticipated this: through the simple installation of two propeller-driven engines, the XCG-20 became the XC-123. This itself was considered only an interim design, as the XC-123A had four turbojet engines, becoming the first all-jet transport aircraft.
The USAF rejected the XC-123A, as it was found to have poor performance and short range, owing to the thirsty jets of the early 1950s. However, the piston-engined XC-123 showed promise, and the USAF ordered it into production in 1953. Production was delayed due to Chase Aircraft being acquired by Kaiser, who in turn sold the design to Fairchild Aircraft, who would produce it as the C-123B Provider.
The C-123 was considered a supplemental aircraft to the C-119 Flying Boxcar already in service and the soon-to-be-deployed C-130 Hercules. It had better single-engine performance than the C-119, and acquired a reputation for reliability, rugged design, simple maintenance, and the ability to land almost anywhere. A small number were converted to C-123J standard, with ski landing gear for operations in Antarctica and Greenland, and experiments were even made to convert it to an amphibian. Nevertheless, the number of C-123s in service were small compared to other types, and the C-130 began replacing it beginning in 1958.
As the United States involved itself more in the Vietnam War, one major advantage of its Viet Cong and North Vietnamese Army adversaries was the very jungle of Vietnam itself, which provided ready-made cover and camouflage from American air units. In an attempt to deprive the VC/NVA of jungle cover in known concentration areas, the USAF converted a number of C-123s to UC-123 standard, with spraying equipment for the pesticide Agent Orange. Under Operation Ranch Hand, UC-123s were among the first USAF aircraft deployed to Vietnam, and the first USAF aircraft lost in combat was a UC-123B. Spraying Agent Orange was very dangerous work, as it involved flying low and slow over hostile territory; it would not be until after the Vietnam War was over that it was learned that Agent Orange, used in the concentrated quantity employed in Vietnam, was also a deadly carcinogenic.
Besides their controversial employment as defoilant sprayers, standard C-123s were used as transports and Candlestick flareships, as the C-130 demand was exceeding supply, and the US Army’s CV-2 (later C-8) Caribous were proving the worth of a short-takeoff and landing transport. To improve the Provider’s performance in the “hot and high” conditions of Vietnam, two J85 turbojets were added beneath the wings of the C-123K variant, which became the final Provider variant and the main type used in Vietnam. CIA-flown Providers were used by Air America to clandestinely supply friendly Hmong tribes in Laos and in Cambodia. 54 C-123s were lost in Vietnam, second only to the C-130.
Following the end of American involvement in Vietnam, the C-123Ks were either handed over to South Vietnam or relegated to USAF Reserve and Air National Guard units, from which they were finally withdrawn around 1980. A few UC-123Ks were used to spray insecticides in Alaska and Guam as late as 1982. 11 other air forces used Providers, and the last C-123s were retired from the South Korean Air Force in 2001. 27 are preserved as museum pieces and a few remain in revenue service as “bush” aircraft in Alaska and elsewhere; remaining aircraft in storage were scrapped due to Agent Orange contamination.
This C-123K was originally built as a JC-123B testbed, 54-0580, in 1955. It was redesignated as a standard C-123B in 1960 and assigned to the 824th Combat Support Group at Carswell AFB, Texas, providing logistical support to the B-36 Peacemakers and B-52 Stratofortresses there. In 1967, it was converted to a C-123K and assigned to the 1st Special Operations Wing at Hurlburt Field, Florida, where it was used to train crews operating NC-123K Black Spot surveillance aircraft in Southeast Asia. As the C-123 force was wound down, 55-0580's last duty station was the 731st Tactical Airlift Squadron (Air Force Reserve) at Westover AFB, Massachusetts, and was retired in 1982.
54-0580's career was not quite over yet, however: it was bought by TBM of California and converted to a firefighting aircraft. It flew as Tanker 63 for a few years, but was retired for good in 1989. Its last flight was to Arizona for display at the Pima Air and Space Museum, where it has been ever since.
Pima's firefighting aircraft are displayed on the other side of their World War II hangars, and can be a little hard to get to...unless, of course, you use the handy map that the museum provides when you pay admission. I didn't check the map and originally was trying to shoot pictures through the fence, which meant getting entirely too close to a bush-filled ravine, that was probably the home of various rattlesnakes and Gila monsters. Luckily, I had an attack of common sense, checked the map, and went around to get a much better picture of Tanker 63. Though its markings are a little worn, Tanker 63's bare metal is holding up in the Arizona heat.
