Operation Welcome Home http://www.nationaloperationwelcomehome.com/ Operation Welcome Home is a celebration that defines our new millennium, while healing wounds from many years past. Operation Welcome Home began in Las Vegas, Nevada in 2005. The Veterans Day celebration was a singular event that was intended to serve as the “welcome home” our nation’s Vietnam veterans never received. The impact was so positive and sweeping that other communities picked up the banner and began holding celebrations. Then another wildly successful national event took place in California in 2006. Now, a huge “Midwest Operation Welcome Home” is planned for the Fourth of July weekend 2008 in Auburn, IN. The Dean V. Kruse Foundation is working with the founders of Operation Welcome Home and the American Veterans Institute to develop a spectacular celebration that will honor not only our Vietnam veterans, but ALL those who proudly protect and defend this country -- yesterday AND today. This is a non-profit event and partnerships are tax deductible. Help us let our veterans know that their service and sacrifice WAS appreciated…and help us reassure today’s GI’s that America will never again turn its back on them.

Ubon Royal Thai Air Force Base - US Air Force during the Vietnam War and today http://us-mil-thai.tripod.com/  Ubon RTAF is where I was stationed from June 1970 to June 1971. We were with the 8th Tactical Fighter Wing working on the navigational equipment mainly on the F4's. These F4's had a guidance system called LORAN C for long range navigation and this was the system that was used to direct the delivery of the bombs. They would get up in the air, punch in their mission coordinates and fly their mission. If you were stationed in Thailand during the Vietnam war, you might want to checkout these sites.
