Unit: 3RAR - MY FATHERS - MIA

Service or Relationship: FAMILY MEMBER

Comments: I also have documented comments by Cpl Murphy's brother, PJ Murphy who in 1952 was given permission by General Wridgeway to visit UNMC and identify his brother.
If you could respond with an email address I would like to forward this document for your reference which may assist with my enquiry.

Phillip O'Brien OSD-DPMO, Col. Louis T Dechert and Dr Alec Christensen CIL Hawaii can verify my bona fides which relate to the possible investigation, recovery and ultimate identification or closure in matters concerning 43 Australian servicemen mia in the Korean War.
Kamsa hamnida and kind regards Ian Saunders


Keywords: please refer to www.koreanwarmemorial.com.au/ then Home link - Korean mias which refers to our Australian mias including Cpl William Murphy 24 April 1951 who may hve been interred in a mass grave in 1952. I am of the belief that US military created UNMC and therefore may have documents referring to Cpl Murphy remains.
