History of a T-38 Talon

Our Air Museum in St George UT has secured from Hill AFB Clearfield, UT a T 38-A Talon serial no AF 62-3634 to AMARC as ASTF 0321 on May 15 1996.
We are looking for the history of this aircraft so we may put it back as original, last assignment. Any ideas or suggestions greatly appreciated.

Photo taken 7 March 2014, out back of the Hill Aerospace museum display buildings, in the “junkyard”.

It had, for company, another T-38 (63-8440), and 3 rather sad-looking T-37s (one in separated pieces).

There were also a RF-4C and a F-4E that had been used by the airframes repair shops for practice, as well as a C-130 with the wings & tail removed and lying in the grass, as well as lots of various piston & jet engines, etc.

And yes, I live a 15-minute drive from the museum, so I can go back and take more pics any time if you want – from all angles, and close-up.

I had to downsize the pics (~3mb each, 4000×2664 pixels) in order to upload them.
If you want the full-sized ones, PM me an e-mail address.

Seems to have spent most of the time with 3500 Pilot Training Wing at Reese, TX.

For a full history, try the USAFHRA at Maxwell AFB
