Entry: 86153 27TH INFANTRY REGIMENT	BROTHER IN KOREA AS A WOLFHOUND
B V LEDBETTER wrote on May 8, 2013 City and State: JASPER AL Unit: Service or Relationship: FAMILY MEMBER Comments: My Brother, John W Ledbetter, went to Korea in 1951 as pvt,was a Wolfhound in the rough times at the front. He died at the age of 50 yrs old with a liver disease that I always felt was the results of chemical spray in Korea. He progressed through the ranks as a NCO and then received a battlefield commission to Lt. in the 16 months he was in Korea,was wounded 2 times,also received Silver & Gold Stars for his actions.When I tried to get his record for the service he perfooed I was told his records was destroyed in a fire in the archives. In fact, in my contacts with the archive they were insulting in their statements. After a Congressional appeal they reissued his medals. We had pictures of him and buddies during all his duties . All we were asking for was his perfooance while serving in Korea for family history. Col. Hackworth of FOX News was in the same operations as John and knew my brother well, but passed away with the same ailment as my brother before he could help me with infooation. If anyone has infooation to contribute to our research will be greatly appreciated. THANKS!!!! Keywords:
