Photo Comment

This B-57 was built as a -D model and delivered to the USAF in March 1955. It then served with the Kansas and Kentucky ANGs before transferring to PACAF flying from Clark AB, Philippines and Phan Rang AB, Vietnam. She then spent three years in the desert before conversion to an ECM role and a second lease of life with 158th Defense Systems Evaluation Group of the Vermont ANG arriving at the March Field Air Museum in 1981.
