Comments: Uncle George my my mom Katie Schmidt Kramer's younger
brother. Her older brother, Charles Mathison, was kia
aboard the Battleship Arizona. Uncle George was
awarded the Silver Star. Does anyone know how I can go
about obtaining the information which details the
action which led up to his receiving this medal. Your
help would be appreciated. My mom passed away in
November 2006 and she would never share with my sister
Karen, brother Jack or myself these painful
experiences. Any information would be greatly
appreciated.

Sincerely,

Bill Kramer

Comments: My Dad Joe Gallo was hurt at Heartbreak Ridge in 1952 (the 235th, he was a Forward observer for a Heavy Mortar platoon) and never received a Purple Heart from the Army.

I tried several times before he died without
success. Anyone who is still among us that remembers him or when he was burned in a fight with the Chinese that can corroborate this information it is appreciated.

Dad died in 1997 but I thought he should still get recognition, Thanks, Greg Gallo

Comments: I would like to hear from anyone who may remember my uncle, Dwaine Hall. He was a young private from Kentucky who was killed shortly after landing in North Korea, on November 6, 1952. I never knew him, for this I'll always be sadden. If anyone remembers him I'll be forever greatful if you could pass along anything you can recall. Also, through my family, his brothers and sisters, I recently discovered that he was supposed to have received several posthumous citations but as of yet has not. I'd love to see his siblings recieve these in his honor. If anyone knows how to go about getting this process going, I'd apprecitate it if you'd drop me a line.

right out of high school with the first National Guard call up. He
went to Korea 190 lbs and came home at 140 lbs. He was back
behind the lines getting a barb wire injury tended to when his
company was overrun. He would not tell stories of Korea even
though we were close and even were partners in a patrol car. Later
after discharge from active duty I was in the same unit but now it

Comments: My father was Frederick L. Horst and he passed away on 22 December 2009. Though we new he served in Korea dad never talked about his time there.

I have his DD214 which states that he was assigned to Co. E, 223rd Infantry Regiment, 40th Infantry Division (no Battalion nor Platton information given).

His Korea Service time was from 22 January 1952 to 3 October 1952. He received the following awards: Army Occupation Medal (Japan); Korea Service Medal w/1 Bronze Service Star; United Nations Service Medal; and the Combat Infantry Badge SO 25 HQ 223 Inf Regt.

For his MOS it lists 1745. On the Korean War Educator site there are the following descriptions listed for 1745:

Infantry first sergeant;
Light weapons infantry leader;
Light weapons platoon sergeant;
Light weapons squad leader;
Mortar section or squad leader, 60-mm;
Rifle section or squad leader, 57-mm;
Security platoon sergeant;
Security squad leader;

When dad entered the service on 8 November 1950, he was a Private E1. When he separated from the service on 27 October 1952 he was a MSGT (T), date of rank 8 May 1952. We fully understand the ramifications of how and why he rose in rank so quickly in such a short amount of time. Whenever any of us kids would ask about his time in Korea he would always shrug it off except to say that he "just" pulled a lot of guard duty and how bitterly cold it was. He would then proceed to change the subject.

My older brother said that at one point before our grandfather passed away he said that dad was a sniper during the war but would not go into further detail about it.

Sorry but though I myself am prior service (Army), I don't know enough about how the infantry is structured. Does anyone know what Echo (Easy) Company's mission was? Was it Light Weapons, Mortar Section, Rifle Section, Security?

Is there anyone out there that remembers my dad?

By the way, I have this great panoramic photograph of dad's unit prior to their departure from California. The photo is approximately 30" x 8 1/2". There are 169 individuals in the photo. The caption reads Camp Cooke (sic), California 1950. On the right end of the picture is the company flag with 2 rifles arched over 223 E.

Any assistance you can give would be greatly appreciated.

I believe he also fought at 'Heartbreak Ridge' 'Sandbay Castle Hill,' and the 'Punchbowl.' in or around October 1952. He passed away in 1993, but I'm interested in hearring any stories about him or his company. He would not talk about the war, I hear he was in a very dangerous group with a high casualty rate, but know little else. If you knew him I would like to hear any memories you might be able to convey to me. This would mean a lot to me as I idolized my father. He was one hell of a man.

Comments: My father Robert F. Caty died last month. He grew up in Boston.Only after his death did we know the details of his participation in Korea. When he was alive he only spoke of how cold it was. I would like to know if anyone can remember serving with him and would like to know if there is an accounting of the activities of his unit somewhere. He was like so many of our veterans - did his duty for his country and returned without the need for recognition or fanfare.
