HU-16B Albatross S/N: 51071 of the USAF, circa 1964. This aircraft was destroyed during a rescue mission in Vietnam two years later. It was blown out of the water while rescuing an F-4 Phantom pilot. For his actions during that mission on March 16th, 1966, Capt. Donald Price was awarded the Air Force Cross.
