This undated photograph shows a McDonnell F-4C Phantom II parked in front of the maintenance building. The Phantom still has a camouflage paint scheme. The Hawaiian tail flash design is on the vertical stabilizer. During this period, the emblems of the 199th Fighter Squadron and the 154th Consolidated Maintenance Squadron were displayed near the engine intakes. An Air Force Outstanding Unit Award emblem is just to the rear of the engine intake.
