Graphic courtesy of: Johathan Leavitt This is my father's lighter, from his time at Tan Son Nhut Air Base. My father was stationed at TSN AB 1967-1968. At the time he was a Captain or a Major: George H. Leavitt, a pilot with the 616 MASS He flew cargo and troop carriers, and I remember that he also took a side job flying high ranked officials from base to base in a small plane while at TSN AB. His CO at TSN AB was Ernie Triplett, and a very close friend. They both later went on to the 63rd at Norton AFB. I’m looking to get in touch with anyone who served with either of them at TSN AB, or specifically knew my father. | |
Graphic courtesy of: Jerry Zerm I have attached photo of the Able Mable patch. I do not remember the origin of the patch but those that went TDY from Misawa, Japan, in the years between 1963 to 1965 came back from Tan Son Nhut with them. I remember there was an area on the base where there was a beer stand that sold beer "33" (better known as bam-moi-bam) and beer Larue, there were some local concession shops, like a barber shop, a leather store where some of had leather shoes made, and 2 others but their service I do not remember. | |
