Photo Comment

Many RNLAF fighter pilots received part of their training at Sheppard AFB in T-37Bs of 89 FTS / 80th FTW "Banshees" (or Burma Banshees, as they were called since their WWII combat experience in Burma, designated 80 FG, while operating P-40s, P-47s and P-38s). This one was shipped to the Netherlands to be preserved at the National Military Museum.
