Same here mikeh0128 I was there in 79-80. You are exactly right on the arclight memorial.

Looks like a B-52C model to me,(although it could be a D) with its signature 40' Tail. Flew 16 missions over Vietnam as an EWO in one. We were an Augmentee Wing for 56 days from Westover AFB, MA in early 1966, in preparation to return as the Resident Wing the following year for 1 1/2 years. Had no 1965 New Years Eve since we departed Hickham AFB on the 31Dec65 and crossed the International Dateline before midnight! Lost one of my EWO instructors from Mather AFB, CA and our fine Resident Wing Commander who was on his last mission before his re-assignment to Washington where he most likely would have receive another star. Both were the result of mid-air collisions! Some things you never forget! God Bless All Our Troops!

That is a "D model." I was there 71-73 and there wasn't models older than the "Ds.' They were modifying the "D" for the last time in the hangar next us. I thought the "D" was the best of the lot for bombing. To all those that don't like the USA, don't take our MONEY!

what i said ,what i mean was not pointed to those americans who likes peace and life. weapon orders to kill man,strong sometimes means Hegemony. that is what i want to say,just like i was not say "fuck " based on McDonald's photograph in Washington.

This is a "D" model, as was noted by sammysea42. The static display is known as the "Arc Light Memorial" and is a retired B-52D that was used in the Arc Light bombings. "Old 100" is also featured in a well-known photograph of it dropping conventional bombs from underwing hardpoints as well as the bomb bay. During the final B-52 strikes a number of B-52G models also participated, but did not have the bomb capacity of the "D". I was stationed at Andersen 1974-75.
