Comments: My cousin Pvt. Donald E. Winters of the Headquarters Company, 36th Engineer Combat Group died in South Korea. Before serving his country he had been drafted by a major league baseball team. He died on July 18, 1953 of hemorrhagic fever at the 121st MASH.

Before his death he and his buddies had made a makeshift baseball diamond to play on. After his death the baseball field was "officially" named after him. The family has a photograph of the sign. Years later another family member in the service said the sign on that baseball field in Korea was still there. I was wondering if anyone knows whether it still exists.

Keywords: Winters Base Ball field dedicated to the memory of Donald Edwin Winters somewhere is South Korea.

Many who returned home were said to be alive and well. But as records keeper i saw the desperation of men who were discharged sick with life and bitter at wives who deserted them at home. Some of our own troops stabbed and raped each other. One AWOL man called me a liar and put down my throat a loaded carbine with full bannana clip. When on Sundays we took to the puckerbrush we walked by old soldiers bones. We only walked where the civilians dared, because where they blew up on the bouncing betties, we lived in their footsteps another day. Still for all the tears I believe as did Truman that dropping bombs sometimes saves a million lives if only once in a good while we ourselves will sand up and be counted. We did

Looking for Korea Army War Veterans who served in Korea with units 
affiliated with the 36th Engineer Combat Group. - IX Corps Engineers. 

Our location was below the Iron Triangle between Chorwan and Kumhwa near a 
shelled out town of Tae-de-gul. 

Interested in the whereabouts and status of veterans and would like to 
contact any veterans to exchange views and recollections. 

The 36th Engineer (C) Group was located alongside Route 22 east of MSR-3 
near Tae-de-gul. There was also a small stream nearby also not far from
44th MASH and a water reservoir. Our working quarters were bunkers in a 
small hill. 

Affiliated Units – The 11th, 74th, 194th, 378th Engineer Battalions – 
76th Dump Truck Co. – 86th Engineer Searchlight Co. – 323rd Engineer 
Company Light – 1437th Engineer Treadway Bridge Company. 

The purpose of this web site is to re-connect with old buddies, exchange 
news and views, revive old stories, renew old acquaintances, and indulge 
in a bit of nostalgia.

This web page is focused on all veterans who had some connection with the
36th Engineer Group while in Korea and WW II.

I served with the HQ & HQ Company 36th Engineer Combat Group of the 8th
Army about the first seven months of 1953. 

I’m just incidentally interested in whereabouts and status of members 
who  served in this outfit at that time.

Hooray!  I finally found a site with ready info about some of the
obscure units in Korea, that worked hard to support other combat units.

I am seeking veterans who either knew me during my time in Korea, or 
those vets who may have organized a reunion for ex members of the 36th 
Engineers Group (c).  I was in the unit from Jan 53 to May 54, and was 
eventually a SFC and the commo chief.  Would be interested in 
attending a reunion.  

Thanks - Mel Phillips [felmay@ctaz.com] 520 692-7267

I am a veteran of the Korean War, I was there from 1951 to 1953. I was 
in the 8th Army 36th combat engineers, 1437 Treadway Bridge Company.

I was stationed in North Korea and was moved within many different areas
of the conflict.  I would like to hear from anybody that was in 1437th
Treadway Bridge Company or anyone that was involved with them.

I found your email address in the Today Newspaper from Cocoa, Florida
today.  I arrived in Korea shortly before Christmas, 1954.  I'm trying
to find out where I was stationed when I first arrived in Korea.  I
traveled from Sasebo, Japan to Pusan, Korea.  I went by train to a repo
depot at Yong-do-po and was picked up by a jeep at the order of a
colonel in a major air group at Inchon.

From there I was sent to the 36 Engineering Group and was to be attached
to the 194 Engineering Battalion.  I never reached that battalion, being
reassigned to the Engineering Groups Air Section at what I understood to
be the old destroyed village called Un Chon Ni.  We had a 900 foot
runway, 3 fixed and 3 rotary aircraft.  I seem to  recall I Corp and
Tempest Main being somewhere close.  There was also a large Mash unit
about 2 miles distant.

If you know of anyone who could help me locate this area, I would really
appreciate it.

Thank you,
