I was a jet engine mechanic in 58WRS, Kirtland Airplane Patch,NM, from Dec. 64 to Jul. 66. Seems I remember(very vaguely) tail numbers from 292 through 299 in F models. We also had some C's and maybe a couple of D's. We deployed a lot: Panama, Alaska, Australia and Nevada. I got spoiled. We gave 1st Sgt Sam Gullo many headaches.
Be safe.
