1973-04-21 21apr73 at the Technical Centre, El Reno, Ok. The serial clearly seen on the tail boom, exhibited a mismatched number on the nose... 1593, but on close inspection the two halves were not matched. The starboard half shows the 15 that would be correct for this individual craft, whilst the port half has clearly been taken from another H-19D (or other model if such was possible?). 55-3193 would be the only contender from this batch of H-19D, but I imagine one cannot rule out other models whose registration would end with 93
