Sorry I can not help you with your time frame. I was a Security Troop 66-67. You do not have to prove that the perimeter was sprayed. They know it was sprayed. Just my 2 cents but you need to focus on showing the VA where you worked and job contact with the perimeter of the bomb dump. Just going in the bomb storage compound you had to pass thru the guard check point. Often we would require troops to dismount the vehicle. That check point was the perimeter. In my days at Takhli the jungle road sides to the bomb dump were sprayed. Security Troop guardmount was at that time not far from the bomb dump. We would walk to the bomb dump if vehicles were not available. Did you walk to work? Can you prove your augmentee duty? If so that alone puts you on the perimeter.
Find a VSO that is up to speed on filing for Thailand Vets. Try to gather information to help the VSO prove your work locations. The key is proving you worked on or near the premier. Good luck with your health and filing a claim. It is a very slow process.
