[Milsurplus] "Radio operator" on HC-130P

[Marty Reynolds]

Just remembered a pal that was a contract C130 pilot for the CIA in mid-70s

What's that?  In his case a Loral civvy employee that was an air-guard grad.

They had a 'special' plane that lived with some guard bases's C130s.  It
was arm-
guarded frm the inside.

The pilot & his colleagues dressed like AF people to keep a low profile. 
They always
came & went @ odd hours.

This is beer talk & the guy won't go further than that.  Like him, I know
a 'disolver' from
 Savannah River atoms for peace bum plant.  A Q-clearance type.

Both parties lips seem sealed.  Must be lifetime bad juju for talking.

Anyway, the 'radio opersator' might have worked for 'the company.'  Clearly
my bud wasn't driving.
