Comments: My grandfather served in this unit in Korea from 1950-1951 I believe. Unfortunately, he died when I was 9, 7 years ago, and I didn't learn that much about what he did in Korea. I was also told of a battle he was in where they were defending a hilltop and about 10 or less men made it off alive after it was over. i was just wondering if anybody had any information about this unit and what they did in Korea, any details about the battle I mentioned would be extremely appreciated. Just anything anybody knows about this or knows someone who was with the same unit would be excellent. Thank you very much.
