Comments: Looking for historical info this fellow. Walter c. Davidson served as a glider pilot in WWII, as well as serving in the 1st Troop carrier command (all in the same?). I have his wings, dogtags, watch, collar insignia ect... His service # was 7013087. Additionally, he served in the 25th div. of the 65 inf. reg. after being injured and taken off pilot status in Korea and that's why I'm here. I was told this was comprised mainly of Puerto Ricans yet I find references here to Hawaii. Anyone remember this fellow? Or have any info via his service #? I've sent to Ohio records concerning this but it never hurts to ask around. I'm curious what in the world he could have done in an engineers outfit....

regards, mitch

Comments: My Grandfather is Sergeant First Class David Wayne Clark. He has told me the story of his radio operator known as Fakundis (I don't know if the spelling is correct) who was from San Diego. Fakundis was killed while he, and my grandpa, lobbed two grenades into a machine gun emplacement. Baker Company was on its way to help the Marines trapped at the Choson Reservoir in February of 1951. Any information about either of them is greatly appreciated. I can't find any information about Fakundis, which makes me think that the name is not correct. My grandpa is still alive in Las Vegas, NV.

Glen Davis wrote on 2005-08-17 00:00:00.0

Comments: Hi. I'm looking for friends of my Father, Sergeant Gordon Davis, who served in Occupied Japan in the late 1940's and early 1950's. He was from Reisterstown, Maryland and had served in the 101st Airborne Division after WWII. I'm certain he was in charge of Japanese Craftsmen who maintained public buildings in Osaka, Japan. In Japan, he was a member of the 25th Infantry Division and then the Japan Logistical Command before being sent home as a casualty (before the official outbreak of the Korean War? -- He never talked about that much...). He was tall and rather skinny; coached a Japanese girl's ball team (as a Corporal); and the only pictures I can find of him in uniform indicated he made Sergeant (non-combatant little gold-on-blue three stripes with a rocker, while wearing the JLC DUI) and he usually wore a garrison hat rather than the overseas caps of others in the pictures.
