Entry: 81838 159TH FIELD ARTILLERY BN (105MM)	DOES ANYONE REMEMBER CPL. HOWARD H. HARGROVE?
GAIL BROWN wrote on January 23, 2012 CITY AND STATE: UNIT: SERVICE OR RELATIONSHIP: FAMILY MEMBER Comments: My father SP7 Howard Herman Hargrove died of Alzheimer's disease June 27, 2010. I met him for the first time when I was 18; when he died I was 52; he was 79. He loved the military and his career in the US Army. Some of his military memories may have been the only memory he had left when he left this world, but we wouldn't know for sure, because he had stopped talking for more than a year due to the advancement of that horrible Alzheimer's disease. I never got to learn a whole lot about his military days. I did not know him during those years. I do know that he was was in the Korea and Vietnam wars. He was a member of the 25th Inf. Div.; 159th F.A. BN. I have a plaque in my possession that an elderly relative sent me after he died. It lists him as CPL H. H. Hargrove in 1950, and it has this info on it U.S. Army Ground Forces, Nara, Honshu, Japan and Combat-Pusan Perimiter- Kunori, along with his division info. Do any of you remember him? And, can you tell me what this plaque means? Thank you and God bless you. I will check back on this page frequently for your reply. Keywords: Hargrove, 25th Inf. Div., 159th F.A.

He served with the 159th in Korea from 1950 - 1951 in the early stages of the war. He was with the dispensary, his OIC was a Dr. Booker, his battery commander was a Captain Delgodo. He went to boot camp in Fort Dix, NJ. Fort Sam Houston for Medic Training. His unit of the 159th was the only all Black Field Artillery unit in the far east at that time. He was in Korea when President Truman intergrated the armed services. I'm doing the research for him, he doesn't have a computer yet, I'm working on that for him.
