Comments: My father, Lt. Richard Y. Park, served in Korea from 1950 through 1951. He passed away in 1996 and I have been trying since then to find out where he served, what he did and who he served with. All I know is that he was awarded the Silver Star, the Bronze Star and two Purple Hearts for action in Korea. I've been told that he was assigned to the 21st AAA AW Battalion (SP), but I don't know what company or battery he might have served with. He was promoted to Captain and served in England before being asigned to Ft. Bliss TX which was his duty station when he retired. If anyone knows or remembers my father, I sure would appreciate an email or letter. Thank you.

21st AAA AW Bn POW Experience of Du-Wayne Donithorne

Comments: In March-April 1952 Du-Wayne Donithorne was carrying or had carried a message to Baker Battery from Hq Battery. He was captured by the North Koreans, kept and tortured in 2 or 3 different POW camps and then escaped naked while being taken to China, and walked back to the Allied lines traveling by night and holing up during the day. Do you know this man or his story?

He only told one man part of the story 3 years ago before he died in 2002. I am writing the story for his grandchildren as a surprise.

My phone toll free 866-832-8416 in Cave Junction, OR (SW corner of OR).

Hope you can help me or get me in touch with people who might have known Du-Wayne Donithorne. He then was the Message Center Chief of the HQs Battery, 21st AAA AW Bn., 25th Inf. Div. and left Korea early March 1953.

21st AAA AW Bn

Comments: Dear Sir(s),

I am a Veteran's Claim Examiner with the US Department of Veterans Affairs, Chicago Regional Office.

I am currently researching a claim from a Veteran of the 21st AAA AW Bn during the period 11 Nov 1950 - 3 October 1951 while he was staioned in Korea.

I believe the Veteran is credible. In order to support the claim, I must have documentation concerning the unit history and/or a copy of the Distinguished Unit Citation narrative. using our normal sources, this would require a period of eighteen months.

Would you be able to assist me? I can provide a Fax number or I can receive scanned copies at my home.

Comments: I arrived at the 21st AAA Aw Bn by way of the 29th RCT, Okinawa; and the 25th Repro. Company, YongDung Po, Korea, sometime in September 1951. The first day "on line" was spent staying alive in an Artillary duel between the UN and China in the pouring down torrential rain. Later assigned to Headquarters Company somewhere between Yongdung Po and the Han River. My boss was the Battalion S-3. I also kept the records for Dog Battery under a CWO who I christened "Demori" Skinhead in Korean. We did not like each other, mainly because I was "RA" and he came from the Minnasota National Guard and thought I belonged in Korea and he didn't. I left Korea for the Big R in early summer 1952 and was Honorably discharged in late fall 1952. I later joined my friend Bill Norris, the first President of the Korean War Veterans, in the fight to get our Memorial in D.C. I served as National Director from 1994 to 1997; founder and past president of KWVA, Yongdung Po Chapter 114, Bucks Co., PA. My last mission is the didication of our Korean War Memorial at the Courthose in Doylestown, PA on June 23, 2000. All are invited to the dedication at 10:00 AM 6-23-2000.
