Here are guys who served with my husband, Jim Hecht, who had the same MOS:
35L20. Does anybody recognize any of these folks? Some may be misspelled as the
roster I received was a bit difficult to read. If so, will you please reach out
to them and ask them to contact me here? Thanks!

I need to find out where the 516th Maintenance Company was located in Korea in 68
- 69. Were they stationary at one camp / base? Did they move around into the DMZ
to repair helicopters? I'm trying to determine if my late husband, James S Hecht,
was likely exposed to Agent Orange. He died of lung cancer last May, but also
suffered from multiple AO Presumptive conditions during his lifetime including
ischemic heart disease, lung diseases and more. Thanks for any help.
