I believe the below will connect the DC-8 to military service. I saw her out on display at Celebrity Row at DM AFB in Tucson.

BUNO: 163050
Douglas C/N: 45881
Douglas Line Number: 276
EC-24A
NUCAR-3
The EC-24A is a DC-8-54F modified for Fleet Electronic Warfare Support Missions.
EX-N8048U, it was delivered to United Airlines and was operated from 1966 to 1984 when it was sold to the US Navy.
