In 1952 I was assigned to the 15th AAA Gun Battalion (SP) in Korea. We had
Half-tracks with Quad Fifties, and M-19 Tanks with Twin-Forty MM cannons.
Although we were AA, we served as Infantry support, mainly with the
Colombian troops.

John also mentioned a book, "The History Of The 15th AAA AW Bn (SP)". 
Can you give us any information about this book, or tell us where we

One story was that he was left out in the compound and froze to death.

He was wounded and awarded the Silver Star for his actions during the
