C-119 Flying Boxcar

Open back end of camouflaged C-119 “Flying Boxcar” cargo plane with familiar dual tail and squared fuselage … most likely at Tan Son Nhut in Saigon 1971. There also were two variations of AC-119’s developed as gunships that were heavily armed (and feared) … they used the call signs Shadow and Stinger. Ever present afternoon clouds are building as precursors to frequent thunderstorms over Vietnam. There also appears to be partial view of a Vietnamese twin engine C-123 on right side of photo behind the standing man
