Keywords: My dad died almost 30 years ago. I remember him telling about his life in the Korean War. I would like to hear from anyone who served with my dad during those hellish years. He was stationed at Ft. Benning, Ga and trained as a ranger. He was in the 3rd Infantry Division; 3rd Ranger Infantry Company. He was injured 1/31/51. The injury was to his right eye resulting in him having a steel plate in his head. The stories he told me of the cold, the lack of food and warm clothes, hand to hand combat, and many other "hard to imagine" experiences have been on my mind so much lately. I do not know why I have become so interested in finding information about him, but I feel like I MUST know from people who served with him. I have searched on the net and found a picture of him as well as the list of casualties with his name on it. I just cannot find info about the day to day experiences of his company.

Comments: Dad was inducted into the Ranger Hall of Fame in Aug 1998. My mother, Patricia, passed away in 1999 and Dad and his second wife, Margaret, recently moved to a retirement community in Hermitage, TN. I attended a Ranger reunion with him several years ago and I really enjoyed meeting his mates. I'm sure Dad would love to hear from those of you who served with him or knew him back then or perhaps more recently. You may contact me directly and I will provide you with his new address and phone number.

Keywords: Richard (Dick) John Eaton was a First Lt in Korea with 3rd Ranger Infantry Co (Airborne) and 65th Infantry Regiment.

Comments: Please help me find a chaplain who served in the Pubwon-ni area. I have a (1964?)photo of him with two orphans from Happiness Orphanage, 20 orphans driven weekly to chapel by orphanage father via bus. One child in the picture is Goo Sooni, an Amerasian, about 11 yrs. Her mother: Jung Song Ja, "Mickey" to GIs, from Pubwon-ni, near MIckey Mouse Corner. Just before chaplain returned to US, he took Sooni to Elvis movie, "Viva Las Vegas" and to base cafeteria for hamburg. The chaplain left "a lot of money" with Sooni's mother to "take care of Sooni". Sooni was rescued by the author, Pearl S. Buck, brought to the states, is now married, a mother of two grown sons, middle school math teacher and a strong supporter of the Pearl S. Buck efforts to care for Amerasian children around the world. I am writing Sooni's memoir. She would like very much to thank the chaplain for his kindness. My husband and I are trying to find the gentleman for her. If anyone has any inkling as to the identification of this chaplain, any source for our search, or whatever, we do not have his name and would appreciate very much any help someone might be able to give. Bless you. Carol Wedeven If you're interested, we will send digitized photo.
