Not the very best picture as the dark green F-4D was pictured against the light and we were not allowed to get on the ramp of Homestead. This F-4D and its crew were responsible for the last USAF MiG-kill in Southeast Asia. On 8 January 1973, when the F-4 was assigned to the 4th TFS, 432d TRW (UD tailcode) and performing a night MiGCAP mission in support of B-52 strikes, it managed to shot down a MiG-21 that was operating out of Phuc Yen. The F-4D survived the time and is currently preserved at the William E. Dyess Elementary School, Abilene (TX).
