Unknown photographer. On back of photo '138088 T-33B USMC 6C-088 Alameda'. No date. Allocated USAF serial 53-5694 for administrative purposes and delivered straight to the US Navy as a TV-2 serial 138088. Later redesignated to a T-33B. During the 1960's it was operated by the support squadron of Reserve Air Wing 91 'RAW-91 with code 7Z and carried joint Navy and Marines titles. Later to NARTU at Alameda, CA with code 6G. Retired by NARTU to MASDC at Davis-Monthan, AZ on 23 Jan 1970. Disposed of to Consolidated of Tucson, AZ in Apr 1974. I have guess of around 1968-70 for this picture.

Tactical Aerial Refueling Squadron (VAK) 308 "Griffins" ('ND-52x') was Alameda based. The squadron was established on 2 May 1970 as a Tactical Electronic Warfare Squadron VAQ-308 and equipped with EKA-3B Skywarriors. After that task was taken over by the Prowler, some Skywarriors were converted to KA-3B aerial refueler. The squadron was redesignated as VAK-308 on 1 October 1979 and was disestablished on 30 September 1988. This 147666 was retired and preserved to the Western Aerospace museum now renamed Oakland Aviation Museum, in Oakland (CA).

Carrier Air Wing TEN ('NM') was established in 1986 but due to budgets cuts the CVW was disestablished with most of its squadrons in 1988. It only made one cruise on board the USS Independence. 160126 was assigned to Sea Control Squadron (VS) 35 "Blue Wolves", a squadron that survived the cuts. VS-35 was last attached to CVW-14/NK when it was deactivated at NAS North Island (CA) on 31 Mar'05. Here a rare picture of a VS-35 Viking with that short-lived 'NM'-tailcode. Alameda saw all six S-3As of VS-35 for a fuel-stop on 9 Sep'87. 160126 was last used by VX-30 and retired in Feb'11, fate unknown
