Theorizing; there was no specialty AFB for strictly F4 training during the war. The F4 Phantom II came from the USN and during & after Rolling Thunder (in '68) the USAF began transitioning from their F100s, F101s, F102, F104s, and F105s to the F4. The USN did the same transitioning from their F8 Crusaders, A1 Skyraiders (propeller driven) and A4 Skyhawks to F4s. The F4 became the near sole workhorse of the Vietnam War; and with all that transitioning going on it seems probable that OJT (On the Job Training) was the method used during those times. And OJT can occur on any USN or USAF base.
