UPDATE "...BUNO 135555 was YC-10. It had replaced 140382 (if my memory is correct without looking for an old cruise book). That was taken in about 1966 either on the way to NAS Iwakuni, Japan or returning from there. If it was returning it was the day I got the worst sunburn I've ever had while washing it so we could remove all the filth from the deployment.
