In Visions Picture #10465 asks

There looks to be a piece of equipment attached to the top surface of each stub wing on these aircraft. What are these things? Thankyou, Peter Emmons HMM-262 Quang Tri '68

Flare dispensers?

While talking with the GySgt at Meecham about the Phrog, another person in the group asked them what the studs were for on the stub wings. He responded that they were for the flare dispensers.
