99 - 34TFS, September 1967- October 1968
I was a crew chief for two F-105's at Korat. Lost my first aircraft over North Vietnam in October 1967. I posted a picture of my first F-105 "Isaiah 6-8" on this web site. I have a few more of the base, head quarters, aircraft, and flightline. I will try to post them soon.
I did not stay in touch with the guys I worked with or played GI pinochle at the NCO Club except for Lamar (Denny) Pitman, he was in Transit Alert. Would like to touch base with other crew chiefs and pilots that knew me.
After the second aircraft was shot down I was TDY to the RB-66 group.
Anyone that has been successful in getting approved for Agent Orange exposure please let me know.
Tom, Thank you for the message and thanks for your service. Take care, Jack
