29th Infantry Regiment

This unit was attached to the 19th Infantry early in the War. The 29th Infantry Regiment had two Battalions inserted straight from Okinawa. The 5th RCT also played an important role in these composite units.

    Comments: Looking for any information someone can give me about
    the 29th infantry regiment 3rd battalion during the
    Korean War. My dad, James Matthews was in Okinawa in
    1949 and went to Korea in June/July 1950. Was in the
    battle at Hadong and then his unit was placed with
    other units since most of the men were KIA or WIA.
    I have no idea what company he was with but would like
    to find out any information about what battles he was
    in, awards received and what units he was with in
    Korea.

    Thanks for your help,

    Bruce Matthews

    Comments: Trying to see if anyone knew my dad, Jim Matthews, or information about his company, which I am unsure of. Looking or any history or information about 29th inf. Reg.
    My dad was in Okinawa in 1949 then was sent to Korea in July 1950 with 29th Infantry Regiment 3rd Battalion. I am not sure what Company but would like to find out.
    I know he was in a battle that very few people lived through and he was thought to be missing until he showed up at a check point and had to be reasigned because there were not enough people to make up the 3rd battalion.
    Any information someone can tell me will help. My dad was very proud to serve but never talked about it.

    Thank you for your help and service and God Bless Korean Vets!

    Comments: I am trying to find information about the 29th Inf Reg in Korea from July to September, 1950. My Uncle Davy was KIA on Sept. 21, 1950. He definitely deployed form Okinawa, as I have his letters and his Individual Deceased Personnel File. This report says he was operating with the 8th Cav Reg on the day he was killed and I've always been told he was attached to the 1st Cav Div. Is that possible? How could he be with the 8th Cav Reg. if he was in the 29th Inf Reg. I am planning to visit the site, near Kumhwa Dong, Korea where he was KIA on the 60th anniversary of his death, Sept. 21. Please Help me if you know of anyone during that time in L-Co; 2nd Rifle Platoon.

    My understanding is that he was attached (not assigned) to the 19th Inf. Reg... and that his MOS was 4745... Being an Infantry man during the Vietnam War, I am not familiar with the MOS, can someone elighten me on MOS 4745... Could this be an old Infantry MOS, since Jose was awarded a CIB???

    Comments: 1950 Okinawa Did you know either Harry Willis (probably from Georgia...had wife and child "back home") or Elaine Klappert Kothe (from Cincinnati)? Looking for info on my birthparents! They served on Okinawa in 1950. Have pictures of both and did locate Elaine but have no info on Harry Willis (army).
    ANY information on Harry Willis would be appreciated. He was a cute looking guy but would like to know more about my dad than that! Many thanks.

    Comments: My grandfather was a member of the 29th RCT Wolfhound Pack and a memeber of 25th Inf Div. He served in Korea from the first days of the Pusan Perimeter to around November 1950 (I believe). If there is anyone interested in getting in touch with him, please feel free to email me. I am also an undergraduate history student. I am writing my undergraduate thesis on the soldier's experience in the Korean War. So, if there is anyone interested in a possible interview or discussion, please let me know.
