Steindaddie Posted November 15, 2019 It is the 115th Observation Squadron, California National Guard. Here is a shot of what may be the same aircraft (#4 on fuselage) a few years earlier. Your photo was taken at San Luis Obispo, long used by the 115th for summer camp. Photo from my website: https://thejivebombers.com/2018/02/05/1554/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
