Hmm, not sure about the "Country of origin".

You are not familiar with that famous English city of Marietta,
Georgia? :-)


Err, it rings no bells, but then I don't know a lot about ex-Russian
controlled states!

Of course, Joseph DID note "ex US 64-13024 C-130K.", As I understand
it , the "K" model is the RAF version of the H and first flew on 19
October 1966. Does that mean the USAF number is because it was from
the Foreign Military Sales program and they are assigned US serial
nos?

Hmm, could well have flown in that one, back in the dim distant 60s.
