I will be 82 years old in a few more days and I want to try and find William "Billy" Cantrell. I believe he was from Georgia. He took all of his training at Ft. Belvoir, Virginia with me, but then he was sent to cooks school and I was immediately sent to Korea. He later showed up at the HQ Company of the 14th Combat Engineers and stayed with us as our baker and cook. He was one nice man in that when we were on guard duty in the coldest of winter time he would go to the mess hall at night and fix hot coffee and donuts and bring to the guards. You just don't forget men like this. I appreciate your website. Thanks, James L. Wasson, wasson1929@aol.com.

Chet Hutton is searching for Sam Corley. In March of 1950, Chester E. Hutton was a 3rd class blowersmate aboard the U.S.S. Cavalier, U.S. Navy. It was one of the first ships to enter the Korean Conflict. Chet's best friend aboard the Cavalier was Sam Corley. His first name may have been William or just Bill. He only went by the name Sam. Chet said that Sam was from Birmingham, AL, and would be around 70 years old today (2001).
Chet was born in Hales Bar, TN, but grew up in Hixson, TN just outside of Chattanooga, TN. He is now 70 years old and fighting cancer and may not live long. He told me that he sure would like to see his old buddy just one more time. Corley was a mechanist's mate 3rd class. When Chet left the Navy Sam was still aboard the Cavalier in April 1950.

I am trying to locate people who may have served in Korea with my father. His name is Cpl. Keith O. Hoard and he was a cook in the Korean War from 1951 to 1953. He was with Company B, 378 Engineer Combat Battalion. He also went to cook school in Tokyo. Some of the men's names on dad's photos are the Ford twins (he has a photo of a birthday cake he made for them), Adams who went to cook school in Japan with my father, Rodell and Smith and Stevens who went to cook school in Tokyo with Dad, Corporal Norris, Headlocke, Fienne, Sremmier, Bellette, Willette, Jarmillo Albecury (was in Camp Chaffee with Dad and they went to Japan for five days rest together) from New Mexico, John Misturack from Deslage, MO (also a cook in Korea), Garrison, Sgt. Thompson and Cp. Thompson, Camp Chaffee, Sgt. Gritter, Kim, Koptae, John KPs in Korea, Peewee, Kim Kat Toe, Song Kan (chun) yool, and a washboy named Hickman (Koreans).
On one of his certificates it says: Most significant duty assignment - Co B 378th ECB APO 301; Service Schools - Tokyo, Japan Food Service School 22 Nov 1951 to 19 Jan 1952; Major courses - cook. On one menu giving thanks to all those in his command was signed Harry D. Hoskins, Lt. Col. Commanding. Dad's active duty card says he was active from 7 June 1951 to 1 May 1953. It is signed by R.P.

I am trying to find information on my grandfather, Carl Houchins, who passed away before I was born. I do not know anything about his time in Korea; however, I have a picture of him with three other men in front of a sign that reads: Headquarters, Second Battalion, 31st Infantry and some of his patches which I learned were from the 31st Infantry.
The picture was taken January 5, 1950. This would put him just a few weeks shy of his 19th birthday. I know that he joined the military when he was 17. I also know that my grandfather was wounded and sent back to the States.
I am hoping that someone out there knows who he was and would be willing to share any memories or stories about him.

The only information we have is that he (John) was in the Marine Corps and was stationed at Camp Pendleton, in Southern California. He served in Korea. It is believed that he left for Korea sometime in 1953. My cousin was conceived about March-April 1953. Also, John was stationed at a Nuclear Testing Site in New Mexico. Not sure of those dates. I was told he was a Lieutenant. It is also believed that he was from Iowa and his parents still lived there in the 1950's. My cousin's mother is now deceased. No further information can be found. His mother had a sister who married a man from Camp Pendleton who might of known John Iverson but that couple are also deceased. My uncle had a friend when he was stationed at Camp Pendleton whose name was George Livingston who was injured in Korea. His leg was permanently injured and amputated. George might have know more about John J. Iverson, but I'm not sure if George is still alive. My Aunt had a best friend named Tory who lived in Lake Elsinore, Calif. She would have info on John J.

Awardees?? I have been looking for those that are featured in the calendar for three years, along with the Korean War Calendar people. Looking at the photo for the 1,000th time (?) I noticed him wearing the C.I.B. and thought it might be the way I could contact him or a relative. Whenever I find someone or a family member, I have the photo made 8x10, framed and sent to a Red Cross Chapter close to them for presentation.

Desiring information on daddy...
Looking for any info... he was a prisoner of war in Korea for over a year, brought out to Salvation Army on a stretcher at 80 lbs. I am his daughter and looking to find the story he couldn't bring himself to tell his children. Being the wife of a Vietnam vet I would like to fill in the blanks. Any leads to follow would be of great help.
Daddy has since passed and I believe it would be a tribute his grandson should be aware of.
Thanks. Please forward any leads to Janice Heesch at heeschhomes@bledsoe.net

My cousin served in Korea and from verbal confirmation I managed to drill into your site and find he was in the First Provisional Marine Brigade in the defense of Pusan. (I recall he was pulled from Okinawa, but I am not sure.) I recently got his DD214 and find it is incomplete, noting five years service 48-53, and under remarks noting "Original Service Record missing; Hq USMC skeleton copy does not have record of school dates". Apparently not even units in combat in Korea, just noting discharge from 2nd Mar Div at Camp Lejeune in '53. His oral history describes the Pusan defense and later the Hungnam Evacuation (and possibly part of the final stretch of the Chosin fight). His DD214 only shows good conduct and national service ribbon. I'd like to find what else he deserves in ribbons since he is now in bad health. He is listed on your roster as Rogene Kilpatrick (service number 1087674). Any suggestions welcomed.
He rarely talked about the war and now he actually has trouble remembering what units he served with. BUT it is clear from your roster and from his corroborating story of Pusan that he arrived there early in the war and was in the First Provisional Marine Brigade at least for some time .. but what if any reassignments followed I have no clue except he talks about the massive humanity at Hungnam - the evacuation of refugees.

My father has a friend whose father was drafted by U.S. military during the Korean War. The approximate date of his draft is November 1952. His name is Kim, Kap Chang and was a part of 8240. His birth date is September 22, 1925. Mr. Kim may still be alive. People who served with Mr. Kim who are still alive say that Mr. Kim is deceased. Mr. Kim's son is wondering whether the US military can verify the death of Mr. Kim. Please let me know where I could obtain such verification.

My father served with the 44th Engineer & Construction Battalion from March 1952-March 1954 in Korea. He has never talked much about the war, but recently while researching family history for a genealogy, I was asking him some questions that must have brought up some memories. Later he asked me if I could get on the computer and find out about the ship that he returned home on (USS Buckner). I told him that I had found a bit of info but needed some info from him to get anything more detailed. Today he asked me if "I could find people" on the computer, I told him that I could find just about anything that he wanted to know. He said he'd like to know what ever happened to "his buddy" from Pennsylvania. The name I am searching for is James Kramer. My father said he was pretty sure when they returned home from Korea that he was living in Reading, PA. They returned to Camp Kilmer in New Jersey. Please let me know if you can find anything. Here is my father's info: Left from Seattle, WA and returned to Camp Kilmer, NJ. George William Wilson--he served with the 44th Eng. & Construction Battalion as a Sgt. (He mentioned that it was either the 6th or 8th, I'm not sure what that refers to, maybe the Division?) from March 1952-March 1954. He turned 76 this May. He lives in Ohio. Thank you for your help.

I am searching for any of my buddies from our Korean War outfit. Time has taken its toll on my memory. The only name I can remember is J.D. Lane. I think his first name was Jerry, but to his buddies he was JD. He was from Sweet Water, TX. He served with me in the 567th Ammunition Supply Sqdn in Korea from October 1950 to February 1952. Our mission was getting ammo to the forward air strips and the front lines.
Many times we found ourselves at or behind enemy lines in the effort to deliver ammo where it was needed most. I saw action in five battles, was wounded once, and scared to hell hundreds of times.
Now at seventy, failing health, I have been tortured for fifty years about a little Korean girl.

My grandfather, Hugh E. McConnell was a Korean War Veteran. He passed away October 12, 1990. I have old letters and little information. I know he earned a Bronze Star, and he was injured in the line of duty. I only have a few details, but I'm eager to piece together this part of my family history.
The reason my family has so little information is that he was an only child and he conceived no children biologically--for reasons related to the duty injury. He came home and married my widowed grandmother, who was 31 with two small boys. He raised them as his own and I was his only grandchild. You can imagine how I was spoiled.
With a four-year-old of my own, I would like to be able to tell my son more about the man who raised me. Some of the letters were lost before I received what was left--and I am tracking down others who knew him. Right now, I know he came home around January/February 1953 by way of Japan.
In any direction you could send me would be greatly appreciated. I've just begun this search.

I am looking for Edward E. Mitchell, known as "Mitch." I went through boot camp with him, spent the next year and a half with him at Camp Pendleton. We went to Korea together in a flight draft in August 1952 and were assigned to different outfits. I was in D-2-1 and I believe he was in the 5th Marines. He was badly wounded in November 1952, lost a lung, I believe, and returned stateside.
He was formerly from Birmingham, AL area and returned to that area after his discharge in February 1954. His serial number was #1162077. He was stationed at Brooklyn Navy Yard and then at Parris Island prior to his discharge.
I now live in AL in retirement and have been looking for him since 1954. I believe he is receiving disability payments for his wounds.

My Dad is looking for a 41st Royal Marine that he met at either a POW or Chosin Few reunion here in the States. To quote my Dad, "He's quite a guy who I met at one of our reunions some years ago." I would love to help them reconnect. His last known address was: 41-10980 Westdowne Road, Ladysmith, B.C. V9G 1X3. Some details from my dad are below:
I was in B Company, 31st Regiment, 7th Division. The Brit I am looking for--Pat Murphy--was a 41 Commando, British Royal Marines, Drysdale. I believe he was a colonel with 41. We also had US Marines with us, but I can't remember which company. We were all part of "Task Force Drysdale", formed at Koto-ri on 11/28 or 11/29/1950 to open the road from Koto to Yudamni where the Chinamen had surrounded the Marines at the Chosin Reservoir. We cleared several road blocks that the Chinamen had set up, but about 8 or 9 miles up, our lead vehicles were destroyed, effectively blocking further advance. I was beside Pat Murphy for some time on the night of the 29th, then was separated from him and was captured on 11/30. I never heard of Murphy again as Chinamen separated Brits from Americans. I do not know if he was captured, but I believe he was.
The 7th Division and US Marines landed at Inchon, North Korea, on 9/15/50. We went from there to Suwon, Seoul, and then back to Pusan, where we boarded boats and landed at Iwon in North Korea, went up the peninsula to the east side of the Chosin Reservoir, and the border between either North Korea and china or Russia, Vladivostok, maybe, then back to Hungnam where we had Thanksgiving dinner. Then to Koto-ri where we hooked up with George Company of the 3rd Marine Battalion and formed Task Force Drysdale under the command of Lt. Col. Douglas B. Drysdale.

My name is Roger Davis and I was an original member of the 714th TROB that left Ft. Eustis, VA in July 1950 going to Korea. I was with C company, and I was one of the ones who was selected to go on advanced part. The rest of the guys came over by ship. There was a sergeant who was in charge of us, but I have forgotten his name. He was a bug guy and quite tall. I was selected because I had been stationed in Korea in 1948 during the occupation and went to Japan in 1949 stationed with the 3rd TMRS until April 1950 and then went back to the States. That's how I wound up at Ft. Eustis. We flew over to Japan and stayed at Camp Drake for a couple of days and then over to Pusan where our main headquarters was set up. I stayed with the 714th until April 1951 and I was transferred to the 2nd Infantry Division with a couple of more guys. I saw action on Bloody Ridge and Heartbreak Ridge before coming back to the States.
My main reason for writing this is one of my good friends by the name of Billy Ritchie was also with the 714th in Pusan and probably stayed there his whole tour. He was a Staff Serge4ant at the time. He was from a small town in Kentucky across the river from Ohio. I have been trying to find him all these years but have not had any luck. Can you give me any advice as to what to do? He was born in November 1929, I think. I know this is not much info, but it is all I have. I know a lot of years have gone by and a lot of these guys are deceased by now.

I've ran up against a brick wall trying to find an individual that I served with in Korea from September 1951 to February 1952. Merton and I were in "D" Battery, 82nd Anti-Aircraft Artillery Battalion (SP), 2nd Infantry Division.
Merton and I were the best of friends. In fact, we each signed a one dollar bill--he on one edge and I on the other. We tore the bill in half. I still have the half that he signed and hopefully he is still alive and in possession of the other half. We made a vow that we would tape the bill back together again and spend it together. In my search for Merton, I did find 13 Merton Smiths, however, none of the responses bore fruit.

I am an old WWII B-26 pilot who flew 35 missions over Germany. I am trying to help a very sick Korean veteran, Raymond Smith (could be Raymond E. Smith), establish records that he served in the 959th Engineer Company (Dump Truck) in Korea. It is my understanding that the 959th was a US Army National Guard Company. His records in his own personal file burned when his home in Poplar Grove, AR was totally destroyed by fire.
Raymond Smith's Service # is 25411838 and his SSN is 430 48 3539. According to this veteran's memory he arrived in Korea in 1951 as a member of the 959th Engineer Company. He is seriously ill. He has tried to get treatment at the VA hospital in Memphis TN and in Little Rock AR but until he can get his DD214 he cannot get a VA Card.
Can you please give us any help in establishing that this old veteran of the Army, with service from Dec 1949 to 3 Oct 1952 and Army National Guard Service to 2 May 1956 so that he can receiive VA medical treatment? Please advise immediately. Many thanks.

FOUND THROUGH THE KWE!
I have a Korean friend who was 17 in 1967 and was befriended by a 23-year-old serviceman from the 2nd Division (I think Armored) 702nd Company, serving in or near the DMZ. My friend says the name on the serviceman's shirt was "Stan Field", but he may be remembering wrong. It may have been "Stanfield." This serviceman wanted to take him to America, but my friend--having a girlfriend he later married--declined. My friend loves Americans because he said they helped him and his people when he and they were poor. He now (before he dies, he says) wants to re-unite with "Stan Field" or "Stanfield" to talk with him and thank him, etc. Can anyone help?

My name is Jennifer "Jen" Stevens. I am searching for anyone who knew my grandfather, George Norman Stevens Jr. We don't know much about his service other than he was drafted into the Korean War and that we believe he worked in mechanics. He was from Frederick/Libertytown Maryland and was born 24 November 1927. I have attached his military photo. He did not talk about his time in the service so the information we have is very limited. His brother, James Augusta Stevens, also served in Korea during his regular military service. James was stationed mainly at Fort Richardson, Alaska.

If any Marines from the Korean War who were in Korea from June 1952 until July 1953 are reading this, I would like to hear from them. My husband, Cpl. Robert E. Underwood, was in Korea at that time. His address was Regt. Hdq. Batt. F/S, 11th Marines, 1st Division FMF. He arrived in Korea on July 4, 1952 and arrived in San Francisco in June of 1953 on the U.S.N.S. General Meigs troop ship. I'm trying to locate any Marine who would have served with him or knew him. He graduated from boot training at San Diego MCRD, going from there for more advanced training at Camp Pendleton. There he was in C Company, 1st Battalion, 2nd Inf. Tr. Reg. TC2 at Camp Pendleton, graduating March 8, 1952. I would be happy to hear from anyone who would have served with my husband to share memories. He passed away December 12, 1996 from lung cancer and still is very much loved and missed.
Everett landed at Inchon on July 4, 1952 and was a forward observer the entire time he was in Korea, returning in July of 1953. There was a Ralph C. Scott and I believe he was from West Virginia, also a Robert Vickery, not sure where he was from. (I have pictures of these and several others.) I know one friend Vance Worster was killed in action on October 21, 1952, on the Hook, I believe. He used to come to our home in Vista, CA when we were there. That was during their combat training at Camp Pendleton. I received the following e-mail from "Connie" Blevins:
Lynnita Brown, of the Koreanwar-educator.org asked me to contact you. I was in the same unit as Vance. In fact, the FO team he was in relieved mine the day before the Hook was overran by Chinese forces. I did know Vance, but not well, as we were on different Teams.
A couple of days after the Hook action, and it was more than just taking the Outpost, the Commanding Officer of the Unit, Lt. Bill Phillips and I went back to the Outpost to see what had to be done to put our observation post back in service. A mortar round fell close, wounding both of us. We were both evacuated to Forward Aid. The Lieutenant died, but I only had minor shrapnel wounds and in a few days I was back in the Unit.

Corporal Vorhees saved my life 22 August 1952, Mando, Korea, Co. A, 31st Infantry Regiment, 7th Infantry Division. Our platoon leader was Lt. Ed Schowalter, later awarded the Medal of Honor. We were a volunteer squad of 13 men. We took 100% casualties trying to take prisoners from enemy bunkers. Ed Schowalter - Col, Ret US Army.... Ed was our last 'of record' squad/platoon leader - when he arrived at Co. A, 31st Inf Regt - July 1952 - he told me he was a VMI graduate, probably class of 1951 - turns out his roommate at VMI - at one period - was one of my 8th and 9th grade classmates at Kellogg Jr. High - Battle Creek ! That person eventually retired from the USMCR -also as a Col...and lived until his death in Ft. Myers, Florida....Col Ben C. Pratt and I corresponded from about 1944 until his death in 2002... I appreciate your information - I realize after all these years the probability of identifying Cpl. Vorhees is very remote.

"My uncle's name is Charles L. Wilson. He served in the Army. He did his boot camp at Camp Chaffee, Arkansas in November 1948. Later he was at Camp Stoneman, California. He sailed to Germany from Camp Kilmer, New Jersey on March 4, 1949 on the USAT LT BI Ray. He was sent to Korea and fought until November of 1950 when he was listed as missing in action. He was in H Company, 2nd Battalion, 38th Infantry Regiment, 2nd Infantry Division. He was presumed dead in December 1953.
I started trying to find out more about my uncle in 2003 or 2004. I sent photos and DNA to the Army and in August of 2009 my uncle was sent home. He had been ID'ed through dental records and DNA. Thank god! However, I was very young when my uncle left and I would love to find someone that knew him while he was in the service. I would love to meet someone that served with him in North Korea. the Army said my uncle's division was south of the Chongchon River in Northwest North Korea. They were forced back, after overwhelming enemy forces and the CCF forces overtook, to a position near a town of Kujang. The Army said our men had no artillery to fight with. After this battle my uncle was no longer accounted for. While in battle or missing, my uncle was moved up to Sergeant Wilson.
Anything you can do to help me find someone that knew him would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for all you do helping buddy find buddy!"
