This T-38A Talon's 'LB' code suggests that she was operated by the 64th TFW out of Reese AFB, TX; 'LB' probably refers to Lubbock which was nearby. Reese AFB was closed as a result of the first round of BRAC closures, probably not long after this airshow.

I am always pleased to see a 'Tweet' and looking back to 1993 I think this was a rare find. She is a T-37B and her 'FC' fin code as well as the orange/black checked band suggests that she was operated by the 92nd BW out of Fairchild AFB.

Operated by Point Mugu based VP-65 (a Reserve unit) this P-3 Orion wore no identifiable markings whatsoever apart from the unit's 'PG' tail code. I think they had stepped up to the P-3C by October 1993, they had previously operated the P-3A version.

From the Point Mugu Open House in October 1993 one of NAWC-WD's RP-3A Orions (since redesignated NP-3D). The 'Billboard' radar modification forward of the tail fin is certainly very distinctive.
