Trying to Assist |

Debra Worden wrote on 2001-06-25 11:54:39.0
Comments: I am a county service officer assisting a surviving spouse of a veteran who served in this unit in 1952. Perhaps, he served additional years, but I have limited information to work from. This veteran had served active duty in a variety of units as a construction foreman. He was assigned to: Sasebo Repl Deport 8068 AU and 398th Engr Const Bn Co A.
Looking for documents that may help support the use of asbestos. Specific information relative to this veteran isn't absolutely necessary, but the unit and any documents regarding anybody assigned to that unit in 1952 that has any indicators of reasonable belief of use of asbestos will be helpful. Or any work on ships, or shipyards, or any documents of anywork performed that involved construction may be helpful.
If anyone has any old documents and isn't really sure if they could help or not, feel free to email me and we can see. The best scenerio is that it will enough anyway to help me assist this surviving family member of a US veteran get her entitlement that will be of great signficance to her quality of life and as the veteran himself probably would have wanted it for her.
Thank you for any time and effort anybody could give me in advance.

comments:
I am looking for help in determining the specifics of my father's
unit, but can not figure out where to look.
My dad died in the mid-70's when I was a kid, but I have a photo of
him while he was serving in Korea during the "conflict". He is posing
with two signs which read, "This bridge constructed by COB 434 ENGR"
with an illustration of Kilroy.
Would you be able to help decipher the message for me as I have been
unable to find any reference to any 434.
Also, he graduated from Virginia Polytechnic Institute (now Virginia
Tech) in '49 or '50 and entered the Army as an officer.
Thanks so much
Update: from Thorpe Mealing, etmealing@msn.com
Dear Mr. Lowe,
This in response to your request for information of the 434th Engineer
Const. Battalion, Korea. I have no knowledge of your father, but
possibly the following may help. I served with C Company, 434th in the
Pusan area in mid to late 1953. The battalion was then a part of the
44th ENGR Construction Group, Pusan.
From memory: the battalion was an Army Reserve unit mobilized in
Pittsburg, PA soon after the war broke out. MAJ Richard Balmer, who had
been with the battalion from date of mobilization, commanded in
mid-1953. MAJ Balmer was succeeded first by LTC (later COL, now
deceased) Wm. M. Linton, USMA 41, and then by MAJ (COL retired) Edmund
Faust, USMA 1943, formerly resident New Orleans, LA.
B Company was commanded in mid-1953 by LT Ward W. (Billy) Are, now in
Marietta, GA, I believe. (Are is a Citadel graduate of about 1952.) C
Company was commanded in early 1953 by CPT Richard Medinger, formerly of
Las Cruses, NM (present location unknown, possibly Iowa).
MAJ Balmer and / or CPT Medinger may remember your dad.
It is understood that the 434th ENGR (C) Bn was the sole ENGR const.
battalion to receive a Presidential Unit Citation during the Korean War.
Hope the foregoing is of some use, Thorpe Mealing
