What are the markings on this T-39?

I found this photo of a T-39 from the reusables section of my local dump, and I was curious about the odd markings on the side of the plane. They kinda look like optical resolution markings, but I'm not sure why they're on a plane. I think this was taken in the 1970's at Randolph Air Force Base, but other than that, I have no clue.

The wreckage of the Pan AM flight of the Clipper Endeavor that went down in 1952 has finally been found. It went down after losing both of its right side engines. Only 17 out of 69 souls on board survived.
