[MilCom] HC-130N 69-5833 "King 33" departs to retirement

The venerable HC-130N 69-5833  "King 33" departed Patrick AFB for 
undoubtedly the last time today. Patrick's  920th Rescue Wing recently acquired a few 
younger birds and made several of  their old planes expendable. King 33 
flew a ceremonial flyby over the base  before departing for the last time 
today. He went into retirement at  Davis-Monthan AFB's 

 
AMARG "Boneyard" in Arizona.  Here is a photo I got of his departure today. 
Job well done, King  33.
