Can anyone remember the date (month or year ok) that the USAF lost two
C-141's on the same day. I lost a buddy on one of those, and my wife and I
were trying to remember when it happened. She remember 75-76, and I
remember a few years later. TIA.

Here's a list of all C-141 losses (22 of them).

It appears the date was 28 Aug 1976. One in UK, one in Greenland.
Interesting that they were sequential tail numbers.
