Searching for pics from 37th TFW/ Phu Cat air base, Vietnam

[dors]

Does anybody have any photos from the 37th TFW based at Phu Cat?? My father was a chute rigger on F-4's and F-100's and i know he would get a kick out of seeing them.

On a sidenote:

One of my favorite parts of airshows is watching veterens reminisce around their former aircraft. Having the chance to see the QF-4 in the heritage flight over the last 2 years has been awesome. Don't know if it was a flash back from the late sixties or just pride in our armed forces but when that phantom rolled out and banked hard right pointing those burners in the crowds direction i saw that fist pump out of the corner of my eye. Not sure what my point is, but patriotism seems contagious. And this is one of the reasons I love warbirds. Talk to vets, listen to their stories, they are priceless.

Go to the C-7 Caribou Association web site. There is a fellow by the name of John Stymerski who took a lot of slides at Phu Cat and he posted many of these on this web site. They include all the aircraft you mentioned.

A tremendous source for information (including photographs) of Vietnam is the Vietnam Archive at Texas Tech University. The Vietnam Archive is the largest non-governmental holder of Vietnam related material. The great part is the scan and place on line (for free) all non-copyrighted materials. If you go to the following website http://vietnam.ttu.edu/virtualarchive/index.htm you can search the online holdings. I came up with approximately one thousand documents and about 100 images. There is a tremendous amount of material on line and takes a bit to figure out the best phrases to use in your search, but well worth it! You can limit the search by material that you desire.
The Vietnam Archive is also collecting oral histories for all of you associated with the war, either military or civilian and even protestors are welcome.
