RF-84F, serial 53-7549, entered storage on March 12, 1971, and was declared excess 13 days later. This photo is from April 1971.

EA-7L, BuNo 156757, waits on the AMARC staff to perform their protective storage magic during this November 1991 photo taken about two months after her arrival there. The aircraft would survive through May 2018, at which point it was scrapped by a local yard.

C/D/E/F-model (I'm assuming, since I cannot read any serials) B-52s sit in high-density rows during November 1992.

CC tail-coded 523rd Fighter Squadron F-111D, serial 68-0137, sits in storage during October 1995. She would survive into 2012, at which point the scrapper would take its toll.

Boeing QB-47E (converted RB-47E) in safe-keeping at MASDC during October 1968, just two months after her arrival for a second period of storage. She'd be declared excess in early 1970 and scrapped soon thereafter.

Lockheed S-3A Viking, BuNo 158869, as she appeared during April 1980 following approximately two years of storage. She would return to service in 1984, remaining active into 1992, then be sent back to the boneyard for eventual scrapping in 2009.
