Iam looking for any info on my father who was reported missing in
action in Korea. He was last seen (according to a letter) on
21 Nov. 1950 near Majon-ni, Korea.
There is a memorial to Him in the National Memorial Cemetery of the
Pacific,in Honolulu,Hawaii.The reason Iam looking for this info is
because there was no personal effects ever sent home.
The following is some info about Him: Corporal Charles LeRoy Somers,
ER6147157,Corps of Engineers,Company "B" 10th Engineer (Combat)
Battalion, 3rd Infantry Division United States Army.
He was awarded the Silver Star.

My name is Ray Anderson and I'm a member of the Outpost Harry Assn.
and a former member of the 10th Combat Engr. Bn. My company, Baker
Company, supported the 15th Inf. Regt. Prior to the siege of Harry,
we had been on the outpost reinforcing the bunkers and enlarging the
trenches.
At that time most of the trenches were deep enough that you could walk
around the outpost without being seen. After the siege, the trenches
were blasted to a point that in some places you had to crawl your way
along the trench line. We went up on the outpost everyday during the
siege. It was mostly a clean up job as the trenches were littered with
dear Chinese Communist troops. They were also in the bunkers so we had
to make sure they were dead and then remove the bodies to make the
bunker operational.
During the night of June 13th. we sent a contingent of our guys up to
lay anti personal mines called foot mines out in front of Harry on the
slope leading to the Chinese outpost Star.
Lt. Geo. Weiser, one of the platoon leaders with the operation told me
later over a beer, that you either had to lay a mine on a body or move
a body in order to lay the mine. While on the outpost, this group got
caught as the outpost became surrounded. The engineers fought as
infantry the remainder of the night to repel the enemy along with the
5th RCT that were occupying the outpost.
Prior to the siege, a group of engineers led by 1st Lt. Frances X. Riley
& Lt. Alan Lichtenberg installed 55 gal. Drums of napalm out in front
of the outpost. This napalm was wired up to detonate upon the advance
of the enemy forces. It was used the first night of the siege and
helped in the defense of Harry.
In the case of my own squad and platoon, we lost two platoon leaders,
one serious wounded and the other KIA. My own squad was practically
decimated and I became the squad leader after only being in Korea for
about 2 months. If I can think of some more input, I'll send it along.

Chosin Reservoir history:
Ted,
I now know what Unit My Unit was up against that 28-29 November 1950!!
It was the 172nd. Infantry Regiment of the 58th. Division CCF 20th.
Liberation Peoples Army. For a long time we had thought that We were up
against 10 CCF Divisions, now We know it was 12 Divisions and all the
Support Units.
The Numbers We had for Years was 15,000 UN Forces Marine,Army and 41
British Commando. to 120,000 CCF, Now We know it's more like 160,000 ?.
These 450,000 Liberations CCF Army had never knwo defeat! as with that
regiment that Tried to come over "East Hill" were stopped by an
Army Combat Engineer Company!!
Hagaru-ri on the 6th. of December was surrounded by more than 70,000 CCF
Combat Forces and We Broke out to Koto-ri 11 Miles South took us
from 6 AM the 6th Of December till 1900 Hrs the evening of the 7th. to
close in at Koto-ri. The big Enemy of both the Chinese and US! Was the
Severe Cold Weather that is now recorded at below 40 Degrees
below Zero. And We did not know about any Chill factor back then!
