Grumman C-2A(R) Greyhound BuN0 162143 VRC-40

Grumman C-2A(R) Greyhound of the VRC-40 DET 4 RAWHIDES. The picture of the plane was taken in June 2010. From May 21, 2010 to December 20, 2010 the USS Harry S. Truman was in action in the Mediterranean and the Persian Gulf. RAWHIDES 44 and 51 supported the fleet for the Carrier Air Wing 3. Unfortunately, I can't recognize the co-pilot's name. But Rawhides 44 was flown by LCDR Mark Litkowski as OIC. The picture was taken at Toulon Hyères Airport, France. GO RAWHIDES
