In 2013, the North Carolina Air National Guard 145th Airlift Wing’s Aircraft Maintenance Squadron was the proud parent of a baby C-130, showing it off at a dozen shows, parades and other events during that year.

Yet more children gobbled-up by the hungry baby C-130. North Carolina Air National Guard photo by Master Sergeant Patricia F. Moran, 26OCT2013.

It took air-militia personnel more than five years, on their off-duty time, to birth the baby C-130.  It has taken part in Memorial Day, Veteran’s Day and Fourth of July parades, and even attended air shows as far away as Robins Air Force Base, Georgia.
