Dad's Friends

Comments: Hello. My dad served in Korea in 1952-1953. I am absolutely sure that he was in the First Cav. I believe he was the man that carried the radio. I am not sure of much else because he never talked about the war. We have his medals, and I have quite a few pictures of him with his buddies in Korea. There are names on the back of the photos. My dad was an extremely private man so I don't want to put his full name down. His first name was Elmer, and he was from Philly. I wish he could have lived long enough to search sites like this. Sadly he died before the monument was dedicated in Philly. He was looking forward to it. Thank you all for keeping us safe at home. I would be interested if anyone was in Korea at the same time as my dad. Thank you.

My father Served

Comments: Hi, I am searching for information concerning my father who died in a military aircraft accident, in the Sea of Japan, February 1954. He had been assigned to 1st Cavalry as a military police sergeant in Korea but after the conflict was assigned to Misawa AFB in Japan. The plane crashed on a flight from Misawa to Korea with all hands lost. His name was Glen Vernon Collins; POB Liberal, Kansas; HOR: Twin Falls, Idaho or Seattle, WA. There are very few military records because of the fire therefore it has been extremely difficult to obtain information. I am retired from the US Army but never served in Korea. Any information will be greatly appreciated.

John Oree

Comments: Wanted to find someone who served with my grandfather in Korea. His name is John Oree. From his uniform picture I can see that he was in the 1st Cav Division. His records were lost in fire at National Records Center, so I don't know exact time period he served in Korea. From his discharge form I can see he was awarded Korean Service Medal with 2 bronze stars which means he was there for awhile.

Now that my grandfather is deceased I can't ask him anymore about what he and his fellow soldiers experienced. I miss him and wish he were alive to see that America has started to acknowledge the sacrifice that he and other Americans made during the so called "Forgotten War". Any info is greatly appreciated.

Looking for info on my Great-Unlce Gene L. Owens

Comments: I'm looking for any information anyone might have on my great-uncle Cpl. Gene L. Owens. Gene was in the First Cavalry and originally served on the DMZ (guard duty) before the war broke out. He was wounded on Sunday, Aug. 13th 1950 and taken prisoner. I heard his POW camp was liberated, but I'm not sure how. I would love to talk to anyone who served with him and knew where and how he was wounded.

I was hoping anyone could let me know where I could search on the internet or at the library to find out more information on Gene and his unit. Does the Government have a web site that I can search?

I would appreciate any help on this matter. By the way, I am writing a book about the war and need this information.

My Short Time With 1st Cav.

Comments: My military records were lost in the 1973 fire at the St.Louis records Center. I am trying to reconstruct my own records. Is there any place where I can find records of when I arrived at the 1st Cavalry Division, which was then stationed on Hokkaido Island and when I was transfered out of the Division after arriving in Korea. I would also like to know which Regiment and Company I was with. My guess is that I arrived on Hokkaido in mid August, 1952. I participated in a mock invasion of North Korea that I belive was called "Operation Feint". We actually landed in South Korea where we stayed for a short time. New members of our unit were transfered to line outfits and the veterans went back to Hokkaido. I then served with the 5th RCT. I enjoyed my brief stay with the 1st Cavalry Division. The machine gun platoon Sgt. and his assistant were two of the best that I would encounter during my two years of service.
