KENNETH EDWARDS wrote on August 14, 2004 CITY AND STATE: NAPLES ME UNIT: 45TH INFANTRY DIVISION 120TH ENGR C BN SERVICE OR RELATIONSHIP: ARMY VETERAN - KOREA Comments: Dear Readers, I am writing this posting on behalf of my father, Cpl. Kenneth Edwards who served in the 45th Infantry Division 120th Engr C Bn Company B, from Feb. 52 to Nov. 53. I am desperately looking for any who served with my father. Kenneth Edwards is dying of cancer. He will not be with us much longer. Dad may have left Korea in 1953 but it has been the biggest part of his life. Twenty years ago my father died after a lengthy operation. He was in his hospital bed and it was undiscovered for sometime. He was revived but the end result left him with permanent brain damage. The damage affected his recent memory but his early years were left untouched. Because of this he has been consumed with all aspects of the Korean war. At every occasion I have done my best to give him gifts of books, almanacs and memorabilia of the Korean War. Dad's last birthday will be Sunday August 22nd. I would dearly love to have any who served with him to send him a card or a letter or perhaps a phone call. Please use the additional info button to get his details. I love my father dearly and I can not think of any better gift than a thoughtful hello from his brothers in arms. Thank you all for taking the time to read this letter. I hope it finds a few of you who served with Cpl. Kenneth E. Edwards. Thank You and God Bless you all Keywords: 45th Infantry Division 120th Engr C Bn Company B
