This picture is included in a display at the USAF Museum to honour
Australia's contribution to a USAF fighter wing in the Korean War.


Along with the Australians there was the South African AF SAAF 2nd
Sqdrn which started out in F-51D's and then converted to F-86's.


During a visit to Mojave, CA back in 1986, I saw four ex-SAAF Sabres
in "kit form" stored between buildings. Still in full camo and
markings.

Hard to get photos, and I was suffering from a raging case of Jerry
Brown's Revenge. TMI.
