After Birth Control (#154) was destroyed at Hue on 22 Feb 68, Easy Money went to Boeing's Maintenance School at Vung Tau. She was deactivated in March of '68 and became a maintenance trainer. Easy Money was photographed with several versions of her combat artwork and the version shown here with the patches of units supported was sent to me by Richard Leisy. I believe this image below was the final updated artwork before it was painted over in Vung Tau.
