context_page_description: Takhli Royal Thai Air Force Base is a Royal Thai Air Force facility in central Thailand, approximately 144 miles northwest of Bangkok in Takhli District, Nakhon Sawan Province.
context_section_description: On 8 November 1965 the 355th Tactical Fighter Wing made a permanent change of station from McConnell AFB to Takhli without personnel or equipment as the host unit at the base. The provisional 6235th TFW was inactivated and the equipment and personnel at Takhli were absorbed into the new wing structure. Previously, all of the 355th's squadrons at McConnell had been deployed to various bases in Southeast Asia, two of which were reassigned to Takhli (357th, 354th TFS) and brought back under its control.
  Squadrons of the 355th were:
  333d Tactical Fighter Squadron: 8 December 1965 – 15 October 1970 F-105D/F (Reassigned from 4485th Composite Wing, Eglin AFB, Florida)
  354th Tactical Fighter Squadron: 28 November 1965 – 10 December 1970 F-105D/F (Reassigned from 8th TFW, Kadena AB, Okinawa)
  357th Tactical Fighter Squadron: 29 January 1966 – 10 December 1970 F-105D/F/G (Reassigned from 6234th TFW, Korat RTAFB)
  The rotational TDY 334th TFS and 335th TFS squadrons transferred their aircraft to the newly assigned permanent squadrons at Takhli.
