Drop tank is from a 49th FIS.

This photo was after 1963/4 as the A/C designator letters and numbers were still being used then. I think the
F-102 was FC and the last three of the A/C S/N and the six was FE and the last three, ie, FE 135. I may have the C and E reversed, but don't think so. Was in the 48th 1962 thru 1964, then to 57th FIS and Deuces in Iceland. Was crew chief on T-33 53-4945 (TR 945) the only t-bird equipped with chaff tanks, and the only one of the three t-birds not painted the same grey scheme as the sixes because I kept it shinned to perfection. Joe Matusky was my mentor. Col. Jimmy J Jumper was CO then. SMSGT Al Cammera (sic) was line chief. Could name others, but no one will probably ever read as we are getting too old. Really sad pics of sixes being destroyed at boneyard.
