BuNo: 154824
James D'Angina Assistant Aviation Curator, HISTORY AND MUSEUMS DIVISION, Museum Branch, Marine Corps Curator Section, sent me a picture of their most recent acquisition and stated that the ".....BuNo: 154824 came to us from the Navy but her aircraft card places the aircraft in Vietnam with the Marines in 1968-69 at Phu Bai, with I believe HMM-265, but this was difficult to make out because her aircraft card was very faded. She served with the Marines until 1977 when she was transferred to the Navy. She was flown by HC-8 Squadron out of
Norfolk here to Quantico."

Can anyone confirm the Squadron she was in?

I'll post a picture of the aircraft in visions and update this thread with a link once posted.
