Comments: Bombing of the bridge that our company just finished working on and our motor pool. If I can remember the date was around August 1953 at about 6 a.m. in the morning while we were standing reverle.

This was friendly fire by our own jets. Would like to hear from anyone that was there when this happened. Also, sure would just like to hear from just anyone period.

Comments: Do not remember much about my time in Korea.
I only wish I had kept a list of names from my company.
I served with 151st Combat Eng., Company "B",
3rd Squad, Capt Jones was our Company CO. at the time, he was later transferred.
After several months with the company I learned most of the fellows were going back home so I had always thought about becoming a "cook" so the cook's took me in and taught me all they knew. Soon after I became the "mess sgt".
The name I remember the most was a cook named "Lovelace".
I remember the time we were also straffed by our own jets, they were Navy Panther Jets who were also straffing the MSR thinking a convoy of trucks were North Koreans.
Does anyone remember the fire in the old korean school house in the middle of winter?
Would like to hear from anyone who served with Company 'B", Third Platoon, Third Squad.

Comments: I would like to hear from any of the old guys that were in the 151st Combat Engineers, I was there in August of 1954. When I got there I had just turned 17, thats the reason to me you were old guys (early 20s). I remember my first day there we were on the 38th parralle, a GI by the name of Blankenship was trying to get a game of ball started, I didn't think we had any balls, (HAHA)he chose sides by who was from the North and from the South. I was worried more about bullets than balls, you guys raised me from a pup, Thanks to all of you
