Comments: Hello, My grandfather was in the 3rd engineer combat battalion 24th infantry division HQ Company (I beleive this is right) during Korea. M/SGT Arvon Lee Midgett. He is still alive, I was wondering if you knew of him? I have a "blackbox" of his that he carried, it has all the name/ S/N / etc. etc. of his men, I also have about 200-300 pictures of one of his tours. He served in WWII, Korea, and Veitnam. He spent 21 years in the Army. His tank, a M4A3E8 (With the dozer blade) named "Mona Teresa" If you think that you know of him, or you know somebody that knows him, PLEASE contact me.

- A few things that may help you remember him? -

He was also Elvis Presly's SGT at one time.

Also, at one time his tanks was painted "The year of the Tigers" In his log he wrote; " 28 Jan 50 Tanks will be painted to - resemble ferocious Tigers - Blk - Tellow - Red - White when paint available ..."

He also spent time in Japan, Korea, Panama City, Cuba, England, Germany, etc. etc.

Here is a small list of men that he was in command in. This comes from his "book", I will just list just the names.

Midgett ROT Potter Price Soism Spomer Ciuft Willson (Or willisP) Settles Purdy Venturini Barrey Mathes RoT Paxton McQueary Bracken Dringman

Comments: After returning from a year in Korea myself, I became interested in my father's tour during the 50's. He began in '52 as PFC Leo (Lucky) Nelson, then CPL, and finally SGT. He served in HSC 3rd ENG BN first as a welder under a SGT Vasquez(sp)in maintenance, "On the hill" He then went on to operate a 10 ton recovery vehicle, and later as his tour was winding down was the Sergeant of a convoy delivering care packages to the orphanages in Pusan. He remembers very little, but would like to hear from anyone who remembers him. Only a very few names stick out in his memory, Col Steinhoffer(sp) was the Bn Commander, and his 1SG was Moody, 1SG Moody had red hair, and a red beard, He thinks they called him "The Big Red Bull" Please email me with any info, and I'll pass it on to him, Dad's no good with computers, and his health is fading, but it would sure brighten up his day to hear from an Army buddy. Thanks alot, SPC David Nelson

I am a retired Msgt. USAF.  I am also a family genealogist and 
currently writing my memoirs to pass on to my grandchildren. I am 
looking for anyone who may have been with or near my best friend
when he got killed in Korea on 10 July 1950. The particulars are as 
follows.

NAME  Wayne O. Meyer,  PFC
Ser.No. 15412012
DOB     27 July 1931 Mansfield, Ohio
Member   Co. B, 3rd Engineers Combat Battalion 24th Inf. Div  

The information I have is that on. 10 July 1950,Wayne was driving a
2 1/2 ton truck loaded with demolition, in convoy returning to the CP
at Chochiwon when the convoy was straffed by friendly aircraft.
Wayne was hit and died instantly.

Other information I have is that CO. B lost two men on 10 July 1950,
1 killed and 1 missing. Can anyone help me find the truth.

Update: May 1998

Also I contacted the 24th Inf. Div through your page and got in touch 
with "Rudy & Vonnie" who put out the 24th's paper the "TARO LEAF."   

I sent them the same message I have on your 3rd Combat Engineers page.  
Yesterday I got a letter from a guy that was in the convoy with Wayne.

He actually saw the Sgt. take Wayne's body from the cab of the truck and
hide it in a culvert.  He helped off load the balance of the demolitions
while the truck was still smoldering.  The convoy was straffed by 
American F-80s which coincides with my own research.

Thanks for the good work

from Dec 49 to Jun 51 and performed Engineer Reconnaissance Duties. 

Most of my section was killed or captured o/a 25 Nov 1950 about 25 miles
south of the Yalu River, Northwest part of North Korea.  Some surviving
members were Russell V. Pemberton Jr, T.C. Clark (Frewsburg NY) Donald
G. Hackford (Snoqualmie Falls WA).

We were not with the rest of the Section when they were ambushed but did
recon the area two days later with a reinforced Inf Plt of the 24th Inf
Div (Probably the 21st Inf Rgt)
