EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a Convair C-131A Samaritan aircraft, specifically O-52-5805 (msn 53-25), in action during the 1960s-1970s as part of Military Airlift Command's (MAC) casualty evacuation operations in Germany. The C-131A Samaritan, a versatile military transport aircraft produced by Convair, was widely used for various missions, including medical evacuation. In this image, the aircraft, adorned with the distinctive MAC insignia, is seen on the tarmac in Germany, likely preparing for another mission to transport injured personnel. The C-131A Samaritan, with its distinctive hump and twin tail fins, exudes a sense of purpose and readiness. The history of this particular aircraft is rich. It was transferred to the Military Aircraft Storage and Disposition Center (MASDC) as CS023 on 1 April 1975. However, its service did not end there. In 1976, it was assigned to the US Coast Guard as an HC-131A with the tail number 5805. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the vital role the Convair C-131A Samaritan played in military aviation history, particularly in the critical mission of casualty evacuation.
