Comments: My unit shipped back to the states in Apr 1955 and was
relieved by the 25 or 24th Division. Subsequent
occupation of the are was by the First Cav. Would
like to hear stores of the place after we left. The
above reference (M-D) is the field name for the
area our CP was at. Had Outpost Martini on the DMZ
which you would have renamed. There might have been
others. Didn't know what was going on around me.
Position was in prosimity to a Imjim bridge called
Libby named after Army Medal of Honor winner.

Comments: I was wounded shortly after entering the war, I believe
it was a head injury but have no memory of the incident
or the 13 days I spent in the hospital. I think this was
near Pusan. Bob Hope and Marylin Maxwell put on a show
and I served him Korean steak or Spam while I was working
in the mess hall. I was often left as rear guard and
often sent down to bring replacements up the hill. I went
by ship fron Japan to Korea then marched 20 miles 1st
couple days in the summer of 1950. Fought the Chinese
north of Pyongyang.

Besides my father, some of the people mentioned were: Sgt William K Dodge of Denver, PFC Charles H Gutherie of Bensonville, Ill., Sgt Archie Ashworth of Beaumont, Tx., Cpl John Andrews, Pfc James Renbold of Phoenix. The article was written by Peter Kalischer who it appears was embedded with the unit. Any of these names ring a bell to anyone? Would love to see pics of this group if there are any out there.

Comments: A 1941 alumnus of our school just passed away: Dr. Jerome A. Dolan. His obit speaks of his heroic service thusly: At the outbreak of the Korean War he was dispatched as a battalion surgeon with the 89th Cavalry Regiment/1st Cavalry Division. He was the first American physician to cross the 38th parallel... His unit had been surrounded, cut off... Capt. Dolan's valiant service was captured in an iconic photograph taken behind enemy lines and featured in publications back in the states. Wearing his helmet and poncho, Capt. Dolan and his chaplain dodged bullets in a monsoon as they slogged thgouth deep mud to escort a shell-shocked soldier off the battlefield."

Being that the photo is labeled asICONIC, is it possible that you've hear of or seen this photo. I'd like to reprint it with an account of his bravery in the next edition of our alumni magazine. If you can point me in any helpful direction our school community would be grateful.

I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE ANY INFORMATION ON HIM. HE WAS BORN JANUARY 21, 1932 AND LISTED JULY 25, 1950 AS DEAD. HE WAS ONLY 18 AT THE TIME. THE WAR IN KOREA HAD JUST BEGUN, TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE. I HAVE READ ON OTHER WEBSITES THAT THESE GUYS' RATIONS WERE SHORT, AND SOMETIMES, THERE WERE NONE. DOES ANYONE KNOW MORE ABOUT THIS. WE DON'T EVEN KNOW EXACTLY WHERE HE WAS AT THE TIME OF DEATH OR ANY FACTS. PLEASE CONTACT ME. THANK YOU. HIS NIECE HE NEVER EVEN KNEW ABOUT. ANN DAVIDSON
