Great footage, & it holds special meaning for me.
I have confirmed that at least one (but I'm guessing more) of the F-86H's of the MA ANG came from the 386th FBS/312th FBG at Clovis (Cannon) AFB. As a pilot in the 386th, my dad's log book has entries where he flew S/N 52-2030 in Apr & Jun of 1955. I've seen photos of FU-030 wearing the MA ANG paint scheme in your video. (Wish I could make out the #s in the video!)
FYI...There's gun-camera footage (training missions) on my YouTube channel.

Glad you liked the old films. You may be interested in Earl Berlin's 2004 effort Air Force Legends #212 F-86H Sabre by Steve Ginter Publication. Lots of great photos and information. I can imagine most USAF fighter jocks would have preferred to fly the F-100A, which was arriving on the scene in nearly the same time frame.
