Looking for anone who remembers my Dad, Morris (M.C. or Tex) Walton

Comments: My father has been denied benefits because his records were destroyed in "the fire" back in the 70's. We are trying to prove that he fought for our Country in the Korean war. We have been trying for 4 years now. If anyone can remember Morris, nicknames M.C or Tex... would you please contact me? Dad arrived in Korea in 1950 or 1951 and discharged in 1953. He started out as 2nd Infantry Division he was injured and spent either Thanksgiving or Christmas in the 8228 MASH "hospital" receiving rehabilitation. Upon release from 8228, he was sent to the 2nd Combat Engineers. He met and befriended Bill Tallon and stayed in the same bunker as Bill. Dad says he didn't become too friendly with fellow soldiers, "self preservation, as you never knew who was going to still be around tomorrow". Dad served under General Fry for a time. He received a purple heart and was supposed to receive a Silver Star. He returned home on a ship, possibly the Hope Ship to the San Fransico bay. He was given a "state room" and invited upper ranked men who were staying bellow to go and use the room. Anyone who may remember him, PLEASE contact me. My name is Ruth my phone number is 530-366-2326. Thank you so much.

Lookingfor 2nd Engineers who served in 1968-69 any Company

Comments: Please contact me. I am looking for any and all former members of the 2nd Engineer Battalion from any Company who served in Korea at any time in 1968 and 1969.

Several of your brothers are still fighting the effects of our time in Korea. We need photos, copies of Combat Pay orders, statements of duties of the 2nd Engineers who worked in and along the DMZ or who were in my Company, E Company (Float Bridge).

Right now I am working with several guys from 2nd Engineer Battalion who have multiple health issues as a direct result of exposure to Agent Orange. Yes guys, that stuff sprayed along the fence, around the guard towers and the Guard Posts and Out Posts we were building was the infamous Agent Orange. The stuff sprayed along the roads inside the Zone and around the bridgeheads at Freedom, Libby and the Spoonbill Bridges was Agent Orange. The stuff sprayed around our compounds to kill the brush and weeds was Agent Orange.

Even if you have not had any symtoms, like Diabetes, heart problems, a variety of different cancers, or any other health issues, we need to hear from you. And if you are fighting or have faught with VA for care and compensation for these health problems, we need to hear from you. And most importantly, if you had children conceived after your return from Korea who were born with birth defects, we need to hear from. If you have been successful in winning a claim filed for Agent Orange poisoning or PTSD as a result of your service in Korea, it is very important for you to contact me.

Even though I am just a former Captain and Company Commander, I made a promise 40 years ago to stand up for my men and to back them in anything as long as they did what the officers and NCOs asked them to do. I take that promise very seriously and now, 40 years later, I will continue to back and stand up for our men. It is very important that I hear from you as soon as possible. For many of your brothers, the time could be very short, but they have families who will need help even if it is too late for the men themselves.

If you can and will help, please contact me at my email: pesteward@hotmail.com, or call me at (706) 996 - 4057.

Thank you.
