He passed away in 2002, wish I knew what he was like back during his service days. He was more like a father to me then a brother. I don't know much about his army days.

Wayne Norton wrote on 2009-12-02 13:19:05.0

Comments: For the last several years my dad ha started telling me stories about his experiences in Korea. When the war started he was assigned to the 49th Ord Co in Japan and was on contact team missions to recover damaged combat vehicles. Returning from one of those missions he was stopped by a road block vic Taegu and was "drafted" by a 1sg who took his 3/4 t truck and made him a machine gunner. one of the things he has told me repeatedly is about raiding a ROK depot of some quad .50 machineguns cleaning them getting them into service and them being used to repulse NK attacks i'm assuming he's talking about the "Bowling Alley" timeframe. He says they/he killed thousands of NK's. I asked him if he was given any awards and he said no he was offered several times by the BN CDR but took promotions instead. I cannot verify that info from his DD214. I do know that the unit was awarded PUC and a ROK PUC and if I can verify he was with the 27th then I would like to know how to get those and any other awards he should or might have earned awarded to him. He does have the right campaign and UN awards for this time period. He is like all the other old soldiers and doesn't think this is a "big deal". I would also like to get any records or information about his time with the 27th if that is available. I do not have his service number but can get it this weekend since I will be visiting him. I know this is a long shot but I would appreciate any help. Thanks, Wayne Norton

Comments: I'm trying to find information for my father-in-law who was wounded at Hill 104 on 28 May 1952. He was a sergeant in the USMC, though that may not have been his rank at the time he was wounded. His name is Lacy Gray Sanford. He grew up in West Virginia, but now lives in Culpeper, Virginia. He was blown up by a hand grenade. He thinks he was with the 1st Marines, though I think he may have been with the 7th Marines. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your service to our country. Happy Veterans Day.

Comments: I am compiling a journal, "My Dad, My Hero", as my dad was in service to his country in three wars, WW1 infantry, and as American Red Cross with the fighting troops in WW11 and Korea. He spent some time in Okinawa prior to the Korean war. I believe he was active with the 27th Infantry Division in Korea. I would be very grateful to anyone who knew him, and for any information about his service in Korea. His nickname was Bock. He had been denied enlisting in the service in WWll, and at the time of the Korean action he was in his mid fifths, but volunteered to serve troops in action. He served with the Red Cross military until he retired. As with the majority of service men, he never talked about what he went through, and of course now it is too late to ask him Thank you very much for any memory you may have. Betty Williams
