Anybody else stationed at Camp Sungwien, Thailand Company C?
I now have diabetes II and have filed a claim under agent orange, and need to know if there is anyone else who could help me with any information or pictures to prove my case. This has been extremely frustrating. They originally told me my records were burnt in a fire. They even replied at one time that they have no proof I was there !! I have given them tons of proof of being there, along with pictures, but doesn’t seem enough. Please help!!!

I was stationed at Camp Sungwien from January 1967 to January 1968. I have Inclusion Body Myositis. It is sn auto immune disease from toxins and no cure. My leg muscles,arms,and hands are getting progressively weaker. You sent me pictures of our camp being cleared and pictures of the agent orange barrels used to clear the vegetation. I have a picture of me standing at our motor pool gate with agent orange barrels across the dirt road in the Thai army base. You can see the new and the used barrels. Don we played horseshoes wrestled and ate the dust for a year. I know you have health problems. I hope this will help you in some way with your claim. Do you remember Nick Thomas? He arrived with me. He is disabled and getting disability from VA. Iam disabled and also receiving disability. Please reply 🙏

I was there from Dec.1966 to Jan. 1977. I operated a road grader and bull dozer. Camp Sungwien was remote in the mountains of Thailand. Iam from Oklahome and proud to have served with my fellow veterans.
