SGT or SSG John William Moses

Comments: My Grandfather SGT (SSG) John Moses passed away recently. He didn't talk much of his time in Korea, but we had touched upon it a few times. My grandmother gave me his flag, and I wanted to know if anyone knew him during that time. I believe the years were 1952-1954(?) Anyway, I'm not sure how much help this will be. I only knew it was the 24th because of a plaque on the wall. Thank you.

24th Division-Early 1950's

Comments: I am interested in finding any servicemen from this squad, who served during the early 50's. While I know it is asking alot, I have a VERY good friend who served during the Korean War, under this division, who,I feel, would benefit greatly from knowing if anyone from his division is still living, and enjoy contact from them. He is a wonderful person, who, from his experiences, has led a tough and emotional life because of that which he experienced so many years ago! He has become one of my dearest and best friends...and seeing him share his tears, of his past war-days has promted me to write this letter. If you wer part of his squad, please contact me so I can pass on the good news to Tom...I know that knowing you are alive and well will lift his spirits incredibly! Thank You!

PFC E-3 Doyle Mills

Comments: I am trying to find out any information on my Uncle Doyle. Who he served with, what was his job, how he was KIA, etc. We only have basically the same information that is on the Korean Memorial website. My dad has been haunted by not knowing anything for years and my grandmother went to her grave believing it was not him in the casket the Army sent home. Is there anyone who remembers my Uncle Doyle. I know he was stationed at Hickem Air Base in Hawaii for a while. His hometown was Brownwood, Texas. Thank you in advance.

GEORGE W. VALLI (FROM CONNECTICUT)

Comments: Seeking anyone that may remember my father, PFC. George W. Valli, from their time in Korea. He fought in Korea mid-1951 to mid-1952. He was stuck carrying the PRC radio most of his time there. He always spoke fondly of a friend named Tucker. He told me of an incident that may sound familar to some, I hope. His unit had been sent back to a rear area for some time of the line. They were issued all brand new weapons and and were using an old wooden building for their barracks. The barracks caught fire and they lost all of the new gear they had been issued. I have pictures of his from Korea and some of the Propaganda (Christmas handkerchief and a Christmas card from the Chinese 'Volunteers'--- Christmas 1951) I'd enjoy hearing from anyone that may remember him. He was a true american and he loved this country. Thanks for reading.

SEEKING COURT MARTIAL INFORMATION

Comments: My family recently was made aware of hearsay evidence regarding my Grandfather's (William Scott) service record in Korea. It is alleged he was court martialed at Presidio for drunkeness on duty resulting in the loss of life of those under his command or control.

Since the records fire in 73 at the military personnel center, we have no way of validating much. William Scott was an NCO assigned to 24th Inf at the time of Pearl Harbor attack. He was supposed to have been part of the liberating force into the Phillipine Islands. For his WWII service record, we heard he attained officer rank and retained it throughout the occupation period in Japan and into the escalating Korena conflict.

I am an active duty Air Force Officer at the Pentagon and hope you will not hold any of that against me. My family wants to know the truth about William Scott. If anyone knows of him, this alleged incident or the court martial, please contact me at office 703-601-2108 or email davida.scott@pentagon.af.mil or send message to home 14481 Idlebrook Court Manassas VA 20112

Sincerely, David A. Scott, Major, USAF
