This is the photo I used as a reference for one of my recent Caribou repaints:

I'm curious as to what role an Army plane in this livery might have served? :)

A little research led to these two links-

http://www.airliners.net/photo/USA---Ar ... 0116178/M/ shows it as airframe #7

http://www.dhc4and5.org/BouRev%209.pdf

It appears that it was used for cold weather testing and training.

cheers,
Joe
