Date Posted: 12:47:00 07/09/12 Mon >I was at Utapao for the second half of 1972 and the begining of 1973. I lived in the NCO housing which was very close to the staging area for the aircraft leaving Utapao. This was very close to the perimeter of the base. I worked in the bomb dump which was on the perimeter. Try talking to the VA about this and all they say is, prove it. Anyway the reason I am writing this is because I have been rejected by the VA and have to go in front of a DRO sometime soon. I would appreciate any information, especially pictures. Thanks for lending an ear. Or eye or something.
