As part of our research on the AC-47, we came across this clip in the archives of the University of South Carolina, where they are helping the USMC History Division digitize and archive its films. This clip shows operations aboard an AC-47, and the film is simply titled "USMC 100571: AC-47 aircraft fires Gatling Gun." There is no accompanying sound or further description.
