I remember taking Samples on all 4eng. and GTC on every BPO and they had to be taken with in 30 or 45min. after landing before the oil had time to settle good. this was at CCK and Little Rock, but the years before that I can`t remember doing it.

My proof was some 781 flight forms that I kept. They showed that I landed and departed some air bases in Vietnam and the A/C sighed them, that was for my HD pay for the month. Sure glad I kept them because just the Blanket Orders were not Proof of boot on the ground.
