Go by the name of Radar, retired Air Force Security Police stationed at Korat RTAFB just before it closed.
Plane leaving for Bangkok on Oct 1, Will be living in Pattaya City. Have a condo reserved right now for 12 months at the Residence garden.
Having my lungs fixed with Stem Cell soon after I am there. Tricare standard will be paying for part of it. But I just discovered while talking to the VA that while in Thailand if I go to the doctor for any problems that is service connected I can send the bill to the VA and they will reinburse me. Didn't know if everyone knew about this so I thought I would throw it out there. I am rated 100% by the VA so I do have a few problems.
After my 12 months I figure I will decide where I want to live. That is if I want to get away from the madness of walking street. If I hook up with anyone I think I would actually like to live up in the Issan area.
Anyway I will be looking forward to meeting any of my brother Vets living in Pattaya.
