307 FMS U-Tapao Thailand
U.S. Air Force
The 307th Field Maintenance Squadron (FMS) was a unit of the United States Air Force stationed at U-Tapao Royal Thai Naval Airfield in Thailand during the Vietnam War. Activated at U-Tapao in the late 1960s, the 307 FMS provided essential maintenance and logistical support for the B-52 Stratofortress bombers and KC-135 Stratotanker aircraft operating in Southeast Asia. The squadron played a critical role in sustaining the intensive air operations of Operation Arc Light and Operation Linebacker. Following the winding down of U.S. involvement in Vietnam, the 307 FMS was inactivated as U.S. forces withdrew from Thailand in the mid-1970s.
