Camp Kanoaka, japan

Comments: I was stationed at the site from July 1957 until June 1958 when it finally closed.

After the hospital closed, it remained a Army signal Corps base.

The train station, then called "Kanoaka" was changed to Sakai- something in the 1960's--=early 1980s.

I visited the site in 1982, It had returned to a Japanese hospital. The plaque at the front gate (in Kanji) only spoke of the site as a WW2 Japanese hospital..No mention of the US hospital.

Col. Raymond Maret

Comments: Noticed the comment that someone remembers my father, Col. Raymond Maret, as the CO of the 382nd. I am his daughter, Jennifer, and wanted to let any interested parties know that my father passed away in August of 1983 at Brooke Army Medical Center. He is buried at Arlington National Cemetary in the Colombarium there. His military career was his life and he was Army through and through. He spoke fondly of everyone he served with in Korea and even went back to Korea on a trip with his Rotary Club in the 1970s. Just FYI...
