Hi George:
 
Yes, I know those machines well!
 
They are Kleinschmidt AN/FGC-25X     ASRs.     Love 'em.....
 
Printer is TT-117 or TT-119
 
Reperforators are usually TT-178 or TT-179s.
 
Standard-issue US Army CommCenter equipment all over the world, and  some
Air Force units.
 
The machines pictured were eventually redesignated as AN/FGC-161s  when
they were TEMPESTED for use on AUTODIN Mode V circuits (making the
keyboards and most of the red button controls on the reperforators  
inoperative).
 
Thanks for sharing!
 
Dave

Hi Dave .....  


Here's  a photo from AFTN.COM showing Dave Lacell in the AFTN - Korat 
Network  Newsroom
You  probably know these TTYs fairly well.  Photo is from 1969.
