Need Help ID US Korean War Aircraft
 

I am posting on my website 16 boxes of Korean War slides I purchased at auction that were shot in Korea in 1953. The soldier was in the 801st Medical Air Evacuation Squadron based at K-16 Seoul Korea. A lot of the slides had minimal info on them but a lot of the aircraft was not ID. Some I know like the F-86 Sabres C119 Flying Boxcars can some of the aircraft fans here help with some of the ID's of them. The slides are posted here on my site http://www.enfieldwargraves.smugmug.com/
scroll down the homepage to the galleries and let me know what boxes and number picture you can ID, thanks in advanced.............

Next time I go to my dads, I will try to remember to have him look and see if he remembers anything about them. He served during The Korean War.

If I remember right Spare's dad is a Plane enthusiast he can probably id all of them.

enthusiast is an understatement, he's a full fledged prop nut. too bad he doesn't have a computer. Ill take a stab at it.
First of all, the twin engine transports with the rounded vertical stabilizer and the streamlined nose are Curtis C-46 commandos. The twin engine transports with the upright windshield are c-47's(DC-3s). The single engine plane in Box 1 pic 3 is a TBM Avenger. The single engine jet with the bubble canopy is a F-84 thunderjet. The twin engine black painted bombers are Douglas A-26 Invaders(one bad *** airplane). The dark blue navy jet is either a Grumman Panther or Cougar(box 7, pic one with the F86, box 14 pic 1), I can't tell the two apart. The big transport with the open front end(box 7 pic 3) is a C-124 Globemaster(they have one on static display at the Charleston airbase). Box 10 pic one is really cool. There's a C-69 constellation(have one on display here also), a B-17 bomber in hte back ground, with c-46's and C-47's

Hope this helps, btw, here's a good site to check on them

It's funny BL mentions Gen Mark Clark to SP...the crossover interstate, I-526 in Charleston is named The Mark Clark Expressway...was he from the Charleston area or something?...

Held the post as Commander of The Charleston Military Air transport at one time. retired from the army, became Commandant of the Citadel Military School here in Charleston.
