Photo Comment

1970: TOS USAF and assigned to Armament Development and Test Center, Eglin AFB, FL. It was apparently damaged because in 1975 it became a ground trainer at Sheppard AFB, TX (and redesignated GA-7D). 1987: The United States Air Force Museum acquired it and marked it as 70-0970 in honor of Maj. Colin Clarke who received the Air Force Cross for actions in a rescue support mission in Vietnam. 1991: Replaced at the Museum by the real 70-0970 and was then donated to the VFW post in Wausau, WI where it is currently displayed.
