Got a nice one:
A BC-455 (6-9 MC) SCR-274N Command Set receiver
with a tag attached showing it came from a
KB-29M (A B-29 converted into a tanker for
refueling strategic bombers during the early 1950s).
This KB-29M, tail number 45-21778 with the
43rd Air Refueling Squadron in Arizona,
particpated in the first "around the world"
non-stop refueling mission in Feb. of 1949.
