Comments: I'm including my dad's info on this site so as to make him inclusive in this project. As of today, May 24, 2002, my dad Andrew Raymond Murphy is still alive. He did not speak of the details of war very much, but did acknowledge his presence and it's importance. He remembers very little with names, but does remember a Theodore Kern from Pennsylvania who was hurt in Korea. Raymond first served from Apr 1952 to Apr 1954 in the 296th Truck Bn, and later served again for a short stint between Nov 1955 to May 1956 in the 1st Calvary Division before he was sent home.

Comments: I was so happy to see the name of Lt. Glass and I will communicate with him. I am also looking for Lt. John B. Patterson. I worked at the Officers" Club while I was attending Seoul National University near the athletics stadium of Pusan. Lt. Glass got me an admission to Texas A.and M. although I ended up going to UC at Berkeley to study chemical engineering.

Thanks for what you are doing. I was a Company Commander, and later Bn
Adjutant of the 296th Truck Bn in Pusan from June '52 to Feb '53. 

This is Veterans Day, and a special time for me to remember what we
did. Keep up the good work. I'll be checking in on you.

Anyone know the whereabouts or info about Lt. Col George A. Bachman, 
C.O., 296th Trans Truck Bn in Pusan 1952. Last clue was Williamsburg,
Virginia, but "information" had no telephone listing for him.
