More detail on this person: Did You Know LTC
Eldon B Oakley (Oak)?
I am trying to locate anyone who served with my
late husband, LTC Eldon B Oakley (Oak). He flew
medivac choppers out of Bong Song and Anh Khe
from Feb 1967-Feb 1968. His unit had a calling
card that looking like a poker hand. He was
killed in a jeep accident in Thailand in 1969.
My husband was killed on 9 May 1969. He was the
CO of the Aviation Unit stationed at Don Muang
Airport. We were stationed in Bangkok and I
accompanied him back to Hawaii where he was
buried at Punchbowl. He has asked to be buried
there if anything happened to him while he was
serving in Vietnam.
