Info for MSG Woolard Strickland

Comments: Woolard Strickland was one of my dad's older brothers. My dad was only about 10 yrs old when Woolard went MIA. I had heard some stories of family members of memories of him when he lived at home before he went to war. It has always been a mystery to me that he has been MIA since 1950. If anyone knew him in this Regiment, or has any news since 1950 on him let us know. As far as I know he would have been around 21 at the time of MIA, and did not marry or have any children to the best of my knowledge. I can be contacted by email or by cell phone: (336)402-1626

This is the info I found so far on this website:

Master Sergeant Strickland was a member of Company C, 1st Battalion, 38th Infantry Regiment, 2nd Infantry Division. He was listed as Missing in Action while fighting the enemy near Kunu-ri, North Korea on November 26, 1950. He was presumed dead on December 31, 1953.
