Koh Tang Mayaguez Vets Organization Guest Book

I've heard rumors that there will be a 50th Year SS Mayaguez Rescue/Recovery Ceremony held in Washington DC in 2025. If this in fact is true we need to start planning for this Historic Event now.

Please start posting any details you may have for this event. We'll ALL need to start saving now. Thank you! "Heavy"

I was stationed at Korat during this time working on the F-111’s that were engaging the Cambodians during the recovery.

Enjoy the site.

Hey Raymond Adrian I was on the Coral Sea Hangar Deck #1 Elevator that day you guys dropped that Blue 82. At first I thought it was a nuclear bomb when it blew. I figured I was probably going to die from radiation. That was one spectacular explosion spiraling orange, yellow, red and black up into the mushroom cloud. I was about the only guy on the Hangar Deck at that time as most were confined to quarters. Between my regular A-6 maintenance duty, the shot up CH-53's and the wounded Marines that was my personal Longest Day.

I was with the 307th MMS bombloade that was sent to Guam to load up B-52s. When we was almost done we was told that all of you did your job and got the people back. We then had to turn around and start taking off 108 bombs on each plane. They was not used because of all of your guys. Thank you

Hard to believe it has been 48 years today. We will never forget. Semper Fi
