Charles Ramsey, who was in the 13th Bomb Sq at Clark AB, but TDY to Bien Hoa and Danang replied:

"I can’t offer any more info than is already out there. That incident happened after I had left. Other aircraft in the formation reported seeing a flash but nothing else. At that time, flying off the B-66 (at night) was pretty much routine.

During the early part of that operation, we did a lot of things that had never been done before, like flying wing tip formation off a C-130, at night, in the weather. It was a very steep learning curve. Not to mention night dive bombing.”
