Chaff tanks! 2 ALE-2s on a T33, call ahead, the dealer would be there
at BaseOps at Dow AFB with 300 lobsters - 150 per tank, seaweed and
ice and two quick ops-stop hops back to Homestead FL! Quite a sight to
see the bugs crawing about the 319th FIS ramp before the feast.

1976 or 1977, 4496, General Dixon's T-39 seems to have made a special trip to
Maine for lobster. Not a long flight from Langley Airplane Patch.
Same time frame, same base, our 135s were known to transport beer etc tucked
in behind the assorted radio racks. I don't think anyone ever asked the 6 ACCS
boys what they were carrying.
