Comments: I was in Korea 13 months,`in a 4 point zone A battery 204 fabn. Probably 10 months in 52 and 3 months in 53. After 9 months they sent me to Seoul to learn to operate a movie projector ( we all chipped in to buy one in Japan) I was the guy that drove my jeep to Seoul every other day to exchange the film AND to buy booze for some of you guys. A quart cost me $1.50 and I sold it to you guys for $10. Funny thing, I sold my liquor store to 3 guys from India, in 1997. Prior to that I sold a large disco club (1991) in N.J. 2 of the worst businesses. Great if you like,fights, drugs, law suites, and roto- rooter. Anyway, I'd like to hear from you if you read this site, I just found it today. Thanks, MIKE FEDOR

SERVICE OR RELATIONSHIP: INTERESTED PERSON

Comments: I would like leads to technical data on 155mm rifles (Long Toms) and ammo. I served as a US Marine Corps communicator during most of the 1st Marine Division battles of WWII in an artillery btn. First in Sea Coast defense and later in field artillery. Being around the guns but never having been trained as gun-crew member, I missed out on the technicalities of the Long Toms. Like range, projectile size and weight, powder charges, etc. I understand there is a museum piece at the National Guard facility in Salt Lake City. Is that still across the runways from the airline terminal?

Comments: Would like to contact Joe Fondo Charlie Battery
Suppply Sgt. or any other Vet of the 204th. The unit flag has been retired. I contacted the Utah Natl. Guard and was told there is one of our 155 "Long Tom Rifles" at the museum in Salt Lake.
