I am not certain of the identification of the next group I am presenting.
All are photographs I took at the USAF Museum in Dayton, Ohio in July of
'06. Help will be appreciated. Once again, the photographs were taken with
a hand held digital camera in usually atrocious lighting. My apologies for
the lack of quality.
This one is I think an A-37, armed T-37 trainer..

Bill, from what a museum guide told me, (and he also flew this plane) it is
one of the first 2 prototypes of the A-37. The A-37's had larger engines
then the T-33's.

The combined thrust of the A-37B Dragonfly's two 2,850 pound static thrust
General Electric J85 GE-17A turbojets was only 500 pounds higher than the
thrust from the Lockheed T-33A's single 5,200 pound static thrust Allison
J33-A-35 turbojet.

Beer possibly, he was a little too light in the loafers to worry about wild
women.
FWIW, according to the IMDB website, he has problems these days watching
the opening titles to Gomer Pyle USMC. The marines he was filmed
marching with, were real ones, many of whom went to Vietnam and were
killed.
