Doing project on 440th's role during the Korean War summer of 1953

Comments: I am the Historic NCO for C Co 440th Signal BN. The 440th Signal Battalion will be deactivating in JUL 07. I am trying to put together an essay about the BN's involvement during the Korean War during the summer of 1953. Some of the information I am looking for is:

1. Chain of Command 2. What was the unit's mission? 3. What was their AOR (Area of Responsibility? 4. What type of equipment was being used at the time? 5. What units were supported by the 440th?

If anyone has pictures they would like to share it would also be greatly appreciated.

This essay, along with many more, will become part of the historical archives when the unit deactivates.

If anyone has any information I could use it would be greatly appreciated.

Camp Ehwa

Comments: I was on an "undesirable cadre" list in 1951 and shipped to Korea, assigned to the 440th from August until Nov. or Dec. My job was the laundry NCO, in charge of the local laundry on base. It was run by Koreans so I didn't have anything to do, excpet make the water run to the Han with the guy who drove the truck. I rode "shotgun."

An IG team came through our outfit one day and discovered I had an infantry MOS, so pulled me out and sent me to the nearest repple depot for reassignment to an infantry unit.

Never did know what the 440th did.
