I flew with then Lcdr Winslett off the USS Kearsarge in 65'-66'. I was the enlisted radar tech / CIC radar Operator on his flight crew. If anyone knows the whereabouts of his flight log I need to prove 3 days, 2 nights boots on ground at US Air Force Base Da Nang in Nov / Oct 66' to verify my claim of Agent Orange exposure. Any help would be appreciated.
