I’m interested in the history that your members have of SEA. I retired from the US military (1978-2011) and moved to Loengnoktha (near the Mukdahan & Savannakhet border crossing) in 2015 with my Thai wife. We enjoy traveling Thailand looking at historical sites. I’m a member of VFW Post 10217 Korat and American Legion Post TH01 Ubon. I’m not clear as to membership eligibility, so please contact me.

AGE mechanic. Stationed at NKP during the end of 1972 and part of 1973 coming from Pleiku Nam. Returned to Ubon in 1974 and after 4 months transferred to Korat where my first child was born. Lot of good memories of friends and local hangouts, but mostly when I was stationed at NKP where I was first married.
Looking for any information on Ron Smith, “Smitty”, not sure which branch, but stationed in Korat, Thailand around 1967 or earlier. I was born in August of 68 at that Air Base and was given above mentioned name as my father. I am Thai/American. Mr.Smith was said to be MIA or KIA by my family who just revealed this to me last winter. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have 3 young adult children and a granddaughter, I would love to pass this along to them as their legacy.

We are restoring to flight a rare A-26A aircraft as was stationed at NKP.

We can get the music but the DJ and especially the airman advisory stuff would be great backdrop. If anyone has some or knows a source it would be wonderful.

I was working at the jet engine test cell on that night. We had to go down the “Ho Chi Min Trail” (so called) to the beach to get out of there. Lots of memories of thatcrazy night.
My father, Harry Boothe, was stationed at Camp Samae San in 1972. He brought his family over there in OCT 72 and we were involved in a baht bus crash in early NOV 72. I lost my left hand in that crash. Iam looking for the servicemen who stopped to render aid, thus saving my. I was bare 5 years old at the time. A couple of our guys were in a bus behind us and they got us to 11 USAF Hospital at U-tapoa Airfield. I would love the opportunity to find these men to personally thank them for helping to save my life. I have a rare blood type and they could only find 6 men in the area and rushed them in to donate as I had nearly bled out before arriving at the hospital. If anyone remembers this event I would love to hear from you. Thanks!
I was one of the emergency room techs the night you were brought in from the baht bus crash to 11 USAF Hospital at Utapao. We had our best people working on that incident. I had only been there a few weeks before being assigned in the ER when that crash came in, trial by fire. I worked the ER at Utapao from Oct 72 till Oct 74
my father served at USMACTHAI in 1969 and I am interested in finding out more about that era and Bangkok. I was 10. and went to an international school there. My dads name was James Jackson.
Looking for anyone that may have served with my father Msgt. Roy Thomson USAF. Vietnam 71-72. We don\’t know much about where he was because he was envolved in secret missions with a group called \”Heavy Chains\”. He was the flight eng. on Spectre C-130. Please contact if you served with him.
There were many mission variants with these very special C-130 aircraft. For an excellent article with good references for future study and leads see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockheed_MC-130 Willi Pete @ TLCB
Happy to join the brotherhood….only heard about organization thru friends at USO I volunteer…..Served USAF,,,Ubon RTAFB…base supply 70-71……well done all
At NKP 5/68 to 5/69
Worked as A/P Augmentee for first 4.5 months as they were under-manned. Then went to Base Supply. No records of this time period. Looking for anyone to confirm this was
Wide spread at that time.
Looking for anyone who served Korat RTAFB and Camp Friendship Thailand 1962-1963. I served TDY with 57th Ordnance Co. Upon arrival, the perimeter was sprayed with herbicide and all herbicide was dead within a week. I trained the Thai military in the use of small weapons. I was ordered to spray within Camp Friendship and perimeter with herbicide from hand sprayers attached to reservoirs on the backs of jeeps. We all had to do guard duty. Camp Friendship would have been completely exposed to herbicide with the drift zone of herbicide spraying from Korat. Would be honored to provide a buddy statement as well. Also, had to travel from Hawaii (I was stationed at Fort Shafter) to Guam, to Clark AFB in Philippines, then to Saigon on a 707. Then traveled to Korat on a C-130. My passport was stamped at Clark but not in Saigon, searching for anyone who also traveled this route. The only way to Thailand was through Saigon at this time. Thank you for your service!

Just found this site. Served with 316th INTC Det from April 1966 to Jan 1968. Love to hear from former members. Served as NCO IC for Joint US/Thai military intelligence training program.
My father’s office was on Sukomvit Rd, and he had a job that sounds similar to yours. US MACTHAI? Joint Intelligence sounds familiar. His name was James Jackson and we were there 1968- 1969 . Might you have known him?
The newsletter came today and with it came the news of John Middlewood’s passing. The void left by his death will be difficult to fill. My sympathy to his wife and family and to the people he served.
I hope all the NKP brothers and their families have a wonderful Thanksgiving. I spent Thanksgiving afternoon 1972 at the Asian Oasis Hq Sq bar with Jerry Keebler and Thai Taxi cab driver number 17 ‘Sipjet’. Wherever you guys are may God bless you.
Kevan: I heard the Army SATCOM terminal was set up to support the JCRC. Did you know SFC or MSG Ken Bower who worked the Army SATCOM terminal at U-Tapao RTNB? I was at Camp Samae San and at Phu Mu Signal Site 1/73 to 1/74.

My father, Harry Boothe, was stationed at Camp Samae San in 1972. He brought his family over there in OCT 72 and we were involved in a baht bus crash in early NOV 72. I lost my left hand in that crash. Iam looking for the servicemen who stopped to render aid, thus saving my. I was bare 5 years old at the time. A couple of our guys were in a bus behind us and they got us to 11 USAF Hospital at U-tapoa Airfield. I would love the opportunity to find these men to personally thank them for helping to save my life. I have a rare blood type and they could only find 6 men in the area and rushed them in to donate as I had nearly bled out before arriving at the hospital. If anyone remembers this event I would love to hear from you. Thanks!
I was one of the emergency room techs the night you were brought in from the baht bus crash to 11 USAF Hospital at Utapao. We had our best people working on that incident. I had only been there a few weeks before being assigned in the ER when that crash came in, trial by fire. I worked the ER at Utapao from Oct 72 till Oct 74
Looking for anyone who remembers Sgt Donald Hall. He was a Jolly Green flight engineer. Served out of Thailand in ’66 until their crash 2-6-67.

Looking for anyone who served Korat RTAFB and Camp Friendship Thailand 1962-1963. I served TDY with 57th Ordnance Co. Upon arrival, the perimeter was sprayed with herbicide and all herbicide was dead within a week. I trained the Thai military in the use of small weapons. I was ordered to spray within Camp Friendship and perimeter with herbicide from hand sprayers attached to reservoirs on the backs of jeeps. We all had to do guard duty. Camp Friendship would have been completely exposed to herbicide with the drift zone of herbicide spraying from Korat. Would be honored to provide a buddy statement as well. Also, had to travel from Hawaii (I was stationed at Fort Shafter) to Guam, to Clark AFB in Philippines, then to Saigon on a 707. Then traveled to Korat on a C-130. My passport was stamped at Clark but not in Saigon, searching for anyone who also traveled this route. The only way to Thailand was through Saigon at this time. Thank you for your service! Please email me at jagmag1990@yahoo.com

The newsletter came today and with it came the news of John Middlewood’s passing. The void left by his death will be difficult to fill. My sympathy to his wife and family and to the people he served.
I hope all the NKP brothers and their families have a wonderful Thanksgiving. I spent Thanksgiving afternoon 1972 at the Asian Oasis Hq Sq bar with Jerry Keebler and Thai Taxi cab driver number 17 ‘Sipjet’. Wherever you guys are may God bless you.
