After being retired from Naval Air Reserve Training Unit Jacksonville, this A-4A was in storage awaiting transfer to the George T. Baker Aviation School in Miami. It is still there and currently on display. At one time it was registered with the FAA as N5548. The dual Navy/Marine markings were once used in the Naval Air Reserve as both the Navy Reserve and the Marine reserve units at a base shared the same aircraft. The NARTU was responsible for the maintenance and assignment of the available aircraft.

Originally built for USAF as 55-4505 and transferred to the USCG in March 1960. The USCG operated 8 C-123B a/c and primarily used them to support the construction and maintenance of the LORAN-C stations around the world. The USCG installed APN-158 radar in the noses, giving the a/c a different profile. 4505 is currently on display at the Pima Air Museum in Tucson, AZ.
