Yeah,, I forgot about the F-111A's that went over there from Nellis AFB to Takhli in 1968. I am so sorry that I had forgot about those guys. And they were from our own 474th TFW as well. Those were the guys with the 428th TFS of the 474th TFW. In 1972, the 429th and 430th TFS's of the 474th TFW went over to Takhli while the 428th TFS and the 442nd TFS stayed home. Howeversometime in around march or april of 1973, some of the F-111A's from the 428th TFS from Nellis AFB did get to go over to Takhli for a while.
What realy gets my goat is that 474th TFW's psc wing wich was the 347th TFW got all the credit for our 474th TFW's effort in fighting the end of the Veitnam war enstead of the 474th.
Anyway Al, I'm sorry I forgot and left you guys out. You guys were part of our wing too and I just forgot. Please except my apology.
