Military records

[dougdrivr]

Does anyone know how difficult it is to request the records of a particular
military aircraft? I'm interested in the military history of a certain SNJ-4
and have heard that this is possible from the Smithsonian?

[N329DF]

for a SNJ, I would start with the Naval Air Museum in Pensacola.
