[edit] Correct spelling?

My information is that this airbase was known as either "Udorn" or "Udon Thani", but not "Udon". Can anyone confirm?

I was assigned to the 20 Helicopter Sqdn "Pony Express" (a det from Nha Trang RVN) at Udorn during 1967. Udorn was the name and spelling used by all U.S. military personnel but the official Thai spelling is Udon or Udon Thani.

See also Alternate Udon Thani & Udorn Thani spellings.

[edit] 11th TRS (and other squadrons)

Whoops if I missed it when I wrote the article. Actually, I'm going back though a lot of the Thailand/Vietnam air base articles and doing a lot of cleanup of things. Also, it does take a village here on wikipedia to make the articles better - thank you for adding the information !!!
