Comments: I am looking for anyone who knew my Uncle, Joe Wayne Seymour. At Chosin I believe he was a Captain. I know very little about his service as he never spoke of Korea. He died in 1998, and I have since learned that he was in the Battle at Chosin. I am interested in learning all I can about his experience there. I have not discovered what unit he was with there yet, though I am certain from the details I have that he was with either the 32nd or the 31st.
