Looks like it was taken near my old house outside Niceville, FL (Eglin AFB). The location would be east of Eglin over US Hwy 20 just near Choctaw Beach. In the distance you can see Santa Rosa Island. Eglin would have had most of those A/C there during that time period. I can still remember in the late 60's early 70s walking out on the ramp at Eglin and seeing QB-47s all done up in Day Glow Orange.

Also note that the F-102 is an early "Short Tail" model.
