Photo Below Courtesy of David Adams. Did these drums once contain Agent Orange? This photo was taken of the Army's 70th Aviation Detachment that was located at the west end of the the Korat flight line. The detachment supported the Army Engineers at adjoining Camp Friendship. The Army did a lot of the early construction and clearing work at Thai air bases. In a black & white photo an orange stripe would appear as a lighter shade.

 

Did your base have "bare" spots on the perimeter?   If you can provide any information, please contact the webmaster
