The Luftwaffe received some 450 Thunderstreaks in cocooned condition, serving until 1964/67 with some going on to Greece and Turkey. This example served with JbG.36 at Rheine-Hopsten from 1961 until the unit re-equipped with F-104G Starfighters in 1965 and was ex-USAF 53-7058 This photo is copyright © Richard Vandervord, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
