LT. E.E. BENOIST |
| KEITH BENOIST wrote on February 4, 2005 CITY AND STATE: NATCHEZ MS UNIT: 815TH TROOP TRANS? SERVICE OR RELATIONSHIP: FAMILY MEMBER Comments: My father, 1st Lieutenant Edwin Euguene Benoist, Jr., from Natchez, Mississippi, was a pilot at Ashiya, 1953-1956. He flew C-119s. I was born at Ashiya, July 16, 1955. My older brother, Paul, was also born at Ashiya, a year earlier. My mother was "Patsy" White Benoist, from Newkirk, Oklahoma. My father had trained, earlier, at Enid AFB, in Enid, Oklahoma. Lt. Benoist went on to study law at the University of Mississippi, following his return CONUS, and went on to fulfill a career in Law Enforcement. Lt./Capt. Benoist later flew with the Mississippi National Guard, but allowed his commission expire around 1970. He died, rather suddenly, in 1988, after a brief illness with lymphoma. I am a former United States Marine, Airborne. During my service I met one other Marine who had "jumped" C-119s during the Korean Conflict. I am interested to know what became of Lt. Benoist's plane. I would also like to "experience" the C-119, by flying in one. I know that several are/were still in service with the U.S. Forestry Service as late as the Mid-eighties. They flew, and perhaps still fly, fire retardant missions in the western states. I have photos of some of these planes which I would be happy to forward or post to this site. Although I have not seen the film, I was very proud and inspired to see the C-119 cast in the recent remake of "The Flight Of The Phoenix". If anyone is interested in helping find out more about my father's plane and crew, I would graciously entertain your correspondance. Sincerely, Keith E. Benoist Keywords: C-119 |

There is wreckage of a C-119 at the Army Museum in Dien Bien. I found (and acquired) what I believe is the aircraft data plate with aircraft's mfg serial number.
