DANIEL KIRBY wrote on November 11, 2008 CITY AND STATE: ANDREWS AFB MD UNIT: SERVICE OR RELATIONSHIP: FAMILY MEMBER Comments: Hello everyone and a heartfelt thank you to all of our veterans today. I am writing this on behalf of my father Ronald Kirby. I knew he arrived in Korea shortly after the armistice was signed. He used to joke with me that he was 19 days out on a 21 day boat trip when it was signed. Originally he was trained as a BAR gunner, but was sent to Japan to learn Engineer stuff. And that was all he'd talk about. I know his records were destroyed in the records center down in St. Louis, but my Uncle gave me a plaque that belonged to my father. It identified his rank, and unit. CPL Ronald Kirby, B Co., 434 ECB. He was from Chicago, and his brother was in the USAF. If any of you knew him, I would appreciate if you contacted me. I serve in the military today, and I would like to know more about the person my father was while in the military himself. Thank you. Keywords: CPL Ronald Kirby, B Co.,

I did find in searching the web that these stars represent 4 engagement that he was involved in. I also found this website---which is cool. My father, Howard Wasz, past away a few years ago. He did not speak much about the war. He was not one to draw attention to himself, but knew the meaning of duty and honor. I would like to find out about his experience in the military. It would be helpful if someone knew which 4 engagements he was in. I wanted to share my thanks for all of you that have shared in serving and sacrificing. God Bless America!!!
