My friend, Mr. Ho, is currently petitioning for resettlement in the US.
In his last interview, he was asked to present a Certificate of
Completion for a Helicopter Maintenance and Repairman in an Air Force
Base in Virginia in 1969. Mr. Ho does not remember the name of the
school. What he remembers is from the base to Washington D.C. it's
about one day bus drive. Mr. Ho does not have any paperwork associated
with the training he had in the US for that year as they were all
burned in 1975 when South Vietnam collapsed for fear of persecution.
I hope you can gear me to the right direction. If you need further
information. Please contact me via email or
telephone (310) 223-0370
If this is not the right group to post this message, please provide a
correct name of the group. I will not bother in the future.

If he's sure it was an Air Force Base, and in Virginia, then
Langley AFB is about the only choice. Down in the Hampton
Roads/Norfolk/Tidewater area, it is only a 3-, 4-hour max drive
from DC. Even the commercial bus doesn't take but about 5-,
5-1/2 hours. AFAIK, Langley has generally been about fighters
and R&D - missiles, mainly - and not helos. But there may be
some reason they could have done helo maintenance training there
during the VN war for some reason that would make sense only to
the Air Farce.
