I was at the Air Force 50th Anniversary airshow at Nellis AFB in 1997. I got a few photos of a MH-53 Pave Low they had on static display. It is the only Pave Low I have ever known of that had some form of unit markings on it. It had a tail flash, squadron insigina on left side, 50th Anniversary logo on the external fuel tank. I had a film camera with limited film, so I did not take any detail photos. If anyone out there took walkaround photos of the Pave Low on display that day I would greatly appreciate you sharing them with me. The tail number was 66-14433 and the unit was the 58th SOW. Please contact me at cboehlein@hotmail.com

The aircraft was an MH-53J (formally a HH-53B) from the 551st SOS, Kirtland AFB, New Mexico. Your best bet for specific pics would be to contact Vince Depersio, webmaster of MH53pavelow.com, he should be glad to help. Also, Wolfpack decals made a decal set for this specific bird (I think), and they likely have an extensive photographic refrence. HTH
