Taken on strength by the US Navy in November 1975, this Skyhawk served as Training Air Wing 1 (TW-1) Commander's aircraft during it's last ten years of service. Stored at NAS Pensacola on the ramp at the National Naval Aviation Museum since 1999, it was loaned to VFW Post 1697 just a few months after this photo was taken. Mounted on a pole September 6, 2015, the aircraft is displayed at Veteran's Memorial Park in Collegedale, TN.
