68-0408 was a familiar sight from 1974 onwards at Soesterberg air base, the Netherlands when the Spook was assigned to the 32nd Tactical Fighter Squadron. It was transferred to Ramstein in the early eightees where it served the 526th TFS. After it European career, 408 went to the 163rd TFS at Fort Wayne (IN). In late 1991, it was sold to Greece. From September 2005 the F-4E became too old and was subsequently dumped at Larissa air base in Greece. It was last-noted there in 2011, its current fate is unknown.
