Take a little walk through the AC-47 "Spooky", owned by the American Flight Museum, Inc. in Topeka, Kansas. This aircraft is restored as John Levitow's Medal of Honor Douglas AC-47 gunship. Sgt John L. Levitow (then Airmen 1st Class) was an AC-47 loadmaster under the 3D Special Operations Squadron who won the Medal of Honor on a February 24, 1969 night mission in support of Long Binh Army Post in Vietnam. #OSH24 #24LT #DDaySquadron #DDay80 #BerlinAirlift75 #avgeek EAA - The Spirit of Aviation EA
