Comments: Looking for: any stories or photos of armed forces interaction with Korean children during the war years, support for orphanages, medical aid given, rescue of children, evacuation of children. Looking for information on the "Children's Air Lift" where the US Air Force flew over 1,000 children from Seoul to points in the south. Check out our web site: for information on Korean War Children's Memorial. (may still be under construction).
Keywords: Korean children war casualties, orphans, armed forces humanitarian aid to Korean children during war.

Comments: I am planning a monument in our city to commemorate the humanitarian aid that the US Forces in Korea rendered to the lost, homeless and orphaned children of Korea during and after the war. My unit (326th Communications Reconnaisance Company, Eye Corps) alone was responsible for helping about 250 orphans and in three years friends and relatives, former high school classmates and others sent over 30 Tons (!) of material aid to help the orphans via our army unit at our behest. I think this humanitarian aid rendered by the GI during the time of conflict has been totally unrecognized. It was not a command decision ordering the GIs to rescue the kids, hug them, bathe them, dress them, feed them and give them the love and care needed for their survival, it was out of compassion and a feeling that these children were just like their kid brothers and sisters (or children) back home. I just got back from my first visit to Korea since leaving in 1953. I had breakfast last week with the woman who managed the orphanage for our company in 1952-53. She is 88 years old and still very active. We were joined by a former resident of the orphanage who had been adopted by a Norwegian family. He had returned to Korea to try to find his birth mother and, against all odds, he found her. I'll keep you informed of my progress on finding funds for the monument.
