Comments: I am doing research on the 440th during its entire deployment in Korea. However, I am especially interested in the time period 1953 and 1954. I am looking for the recollections of people, situations, conditions and the little things that make up the memories of our 440th Korean experience. We all have a memory or two that others would be interested in hearing. Won't you share them so they can be put together for others to relive? Please contact me and lets swap memmories

My outfit was the 440th Aviation Signal Construction Battalion.  We 
were (as SCARWAF means) Special Category Army With Air Force - attached
to 5th Air Force Rear.  When I got there in l952 we were billeted at 
Ehwa College, west of Seoul. It had sustained light bomb or artillery 
damage and was pock-marked with bullet holes.  But we fixed up and 
lived a "country club" extence - maybe one of the only ones in Korea. 

But it wasn't to last.  In '53 were were moved out...south on US l to 
Anyang Ni.  There was a small factory office building, small factory 
building - both bombed out - and a desserted rice paddy.  

We set up at first in tents and went to work on the bombed out 
structures.  The office became Headquarters, the factory an auditorium 
used mostly for movies at night.  Eventually we replaced the tents with
quonset huts and life became decent.

After the armistice, we even formed a battalion baseball team and played
in the Korean championship playoffs at Seoul City Stadium.  The winner 
got TDY to Tokyo for the All East Tournament.  Alas, we lost and went 
back to Anyang Ni to await eventual rotation to the ZI and discharge.  

Not too many RA's in our outfit.  Most of us were draftees and couldn't
wait to get back home and resume civilian life.
