northcoastaero Posted August 15, 2015 Share #1 Posted August 15, 2015 I was viewing an episode of The Six Million Dollar Man starring Lee Majors a few years ago and noticed him wearing a MBU-5/P oxygen mask with a white silicone inner face piece. I have talked with other collectors and they have told me that they have seen the white hard shells and white hoses for this mask. I was wondering if there were any more parts that were molded in white for the MBU-5/P. The episode was called The Thunderbird Connection and was aired on November 28, 1976. Season 4, episode 9. The mask that I mentioned can be seen near the end of the episode. I have seen variations of the USN MS-22001 in white for the nuclear delivery program. I was wondering if anyone has any input about this MBU-5/P. Any help would be appreciated. Thank-you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
