James Roberts wrote on 2005-01-02 16:59:14.0

Comments: Donald, your email address is not working on the site, so you may see this reply on here. I served with Hq & Hq Co 2nd Engineer Group (const) at Camp Richmond near Kimpo K-14 and near the village of Oso Ri in 1960-61. There was another camp across the village from us with the 76th and 44th Engineers on Camp Eiler. Kimpo Air Base was a large fence in area near both of these camps. I have heard that the fence lines around Kimpo were sprayed with Agent Orange to keep vegetation off the fences. As far as I know I wasn't exposed to it as I'm not sure if it was being used at the time I was there.

I have put together a website of the Hq & Hq Co. 2nd Engineer Group when it was located at Camp Richmond near Kimpo Air Base K-14. Camp Richmond was next to a village named Oh So Ri and “B” Co. 802nd Engineers(Heavy Dump Truck) const was also on the same compound. A couple of attached units was the 76th Engineers(const) and 44th Engineer Map Detachment Co’s. You can go directly to the website here: http://home.hiwaay.net/~stargate/korea.htm

The site has many names listed of members that served with this unit.
