Name: MSgt Kal N. Slater (Active US Air Force) | Mar 30, 2017 |
Email: Comments: The Air Force Personnel Center has begun to research an incident that occurred at Tan Son Nhut in July of 1965 (specifically 18 July, 1965). We have been approached Sen. John Cornin on behalf of an Airmen who is requesting review of a service medal that was lost. At the time of the incident the Airmen was the aide-de-camp for BG George Simler. We would be interested in contacting any of your members that were at Tan Son Nhut in summer of 1965. We're looking for eye witnesses to an act of gallantry. Any assistance would be very much appreciated. You can contact me or 210-565-4179. ****************************************** We received a Board of Correction of Military Records (BCMR) for an Airmen who is requesting a reconsideration for a high level decoration. His claim is that the decoration was submitted for review in 1965 but was lost or never acted upon. Here is what we have, a non-official document purported to be a statement from a BG Simlar. The document describes an incident were the Airmen was traveling in a staff car with BG Simler. During their journey the staff car was ambushed by VC soldiers. It includes a narrative about how the Airmen fought off the VC attack allowing BG Simlar to escape back to the base. We also received a statements from the Airmen describing the same. Our team is looking for help and we are unofficially requesting information about the event. Ideally, one of your members will step forward, go on the record and corroborate the Airmen's statement. If the statement we have is true, then what happened that day would be notable enough for anyone to remember the event. We have purposely left out some facts as we hope to independently verify the case, we want anyone that comes forward to be able to recollect the day's events without us tainting the memory. We would be very gratefully if you could ask your members a general question about any memories that they have about an incident involving BG Simlar in Jul of 1965. If you have anyone respond we would like to speak with them privately. We would like any research we do will have to remain quiet, for now. Our hope is that we can accurately determine the validity of the statement and either dismiss the claim or press forward to support this Airmen's long overdue recognition for his acts of bravery. I have CC's SSgt Ben Pratt who has been assigned the case. V/r, KAL N. SLATER, MSgt, USAF Air Force Personnel Center 550 C Street West, C-114 JBSA Randolph TX 78150 TFSC 800-525-0102 |
