Re: Takhli RTAFB - 1972 and 1973
Shipped from Holloman three months after 49th TFW deployed TDY to Takhli in '72,(medical delay). They didn't have authorization for another E-9. Wound up cruising the F-4 flightline overnights. Sixty days later AF Assignments transferred me PCS to Korat. In their wisdom, the head-counters decided that since this was a PCS,I would have to return to Holloman and clear the 49th. So back I went, cleared the base and hopped back to Korat. I still can't figure why they didn't just cut me a set of orders at Takhli and put me on the shuttle to Korat. But as they say,'It all counted for thirty.'
