Later, we received F-84E models and finally the F 84G. Almost immediately after I arrived in the theater, the 136th Wing, which was an ANG wing was sent home (all their folks had already gone) and the 58th Wing was commissioned. Those of us in the wing at the time remained as members of the new organization. The 154th squadron became the 310th FB Sqdn. Our companion squadrons were the 311th and the 69th. The 310th was the squadron into which the remaining F-84D aircraft were concentrated. They were a study in contrasts. They had the J-35-29 engine which gave them the power of the later -G models and were lighter than the E's possessed by the other squadrons. Although they flew the pants off of the others, the -D was a bear to maintain. The wiring was junk: As much as 8 stray volts to the armament systems created a real desire to move rocket pigtail hookup to the end of the runway instead of on the ramp. You have to realize the aircraft in the 58th wing were parked so those rockets were directed in the general direction of the Officer's Club.
