Comments: I'm a plastic modeller who is interested in photos of the M40 155mm GMC in action while in Korea. A well-known photo of one of the 204th's GMCs is the one with a dragon painted on its side. Can anyone assist me with any photos of it or others of the unit while serving in Korea?

Thank you very much.

Comments: Sent to Korea during the summer of 1951, I was one of the replacements for Logan Utah National Guard troops from C Battery, 204th FA Bn, under I Corp. My name is Gerald Duggan but my nickname was "Jersey" back then. I worked in communications. My best pal was a native american named Thompson from I think Minnesota. If you're out there "Thomps" give me a holler. Other names I remember are: Woody, Dago (John Magno), Kelly, John Wyatt, Gamble, Dave Suggs, Dave Mathews, Skorski, Pisquale, Capt. Snyder. I'd love to hear from any of you or anyone who may remember me from that time and place.

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

Jim Kluge wrote on 2004-04-08 00:05:46.0

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?
