PAUL DUNMIRE wrote on May 4, 2006 City and State: YOUNGTOWN AZ Unit: 47TTH MASH Service or Relationship: ARMY VETERAN Comments: I was assigned to the 47th MASH late June or early July 1953. The unit had been seperated and we were just a small group who assembled in Chunchon to hear that the cease fire had gone into effect. At that time I was a PFC and Company clerk, Radar, I guess. I was with the unit just a short time, maybe only a couple of months and evacuated to a major hospital in Pusan and later to a General Hospital just outside of Tokyo. After about three months in the hospital I was assigned to Headquarter Central Command in Tokyo. I received my security clearance and was supervisor of the Classified Message Center. In November 1954, I was then Staff Sgt., and was flow back to the states where I was discharged December 17th at Ft. Geore E. Meade, Maryland. Would appreciate hearing from anyone whose accquaintance I may have had the oipportunity of knowing. Paul M. Dunmire Keywords:

BRUCE MILLER wrote on February 14, 2004 City and State: Unit: Service or Relationship: ARMY VETERAN - KOREA Comments: In answer to the query about the 43rd MASH, it existed at Camp Mosher, approx. two miles north of I Corp HQ at Camp Red Cloud, Uijongbu, Korea. I served as unit supply sergeant (E-4 "acting jack")in '62-'63. When I arrived in country April '62, the 43rd was attached to the 168th Med Battalion, Eigth Army, but was later transferred to operational control of "I" Corp Group, Camp Red Cloud. There was a medical evac helicopter unit just across the road; they flew the Huey H-1s familiar to the Vietnam era. In fact, part of that helicopter company was preparing to depart for Vietnam in May '63 when I departed the 43rd for CONUS and ETS. We spent a good deal of time on field duty, our big army tent-wards with red crosses emblazoned on top of "MASH" tv fame. I recall Camp Santa Barbara on the "Z" as our alert position. Keywords:

BERTRAM (BERT) BRENT wrote on October 1, 2003 City and State: ASHVILLE AL Unit: 13TH HELICOPTER CO. 1955 - 1956 Service or Relationship: ARMY VETERAN - KOREA Comments: I was with the 13th Helicopter at Uijongbu from January 1955 to April 1956. I went as a mechanic but wound up in Operations. One of my first trips was to Chunchon where we had a couple of H-19's based on TDY. The 6th Helicopter had left the country by that time. It seems to me that one of the places we flew on a regular basis was the 43rd MASH, about 15 miles or so northwest of Uijongbu. Was there a 43rd MASH, or am I thinking of the 44th? One of the more vivid memories of rescue missions was the time in midsummer of 1955 I believe it was when the air force pilot got lost and flew into the DMZ and was promptly shot down. Our unit was called on to fly in and pick up the wounded pilot - after negotiations at the U.N. in New York to get the pickup approved. Our mechanics worked all day painting giant red crosses on one of our H-19's - this was a demand of the Chinese/North Koreans - that the helicopter had to be marked with red crosses. Our pilots picked up the air force guy and stopped by Uijongbu on the way to a hospital -I think they probably took him to the 121st evac at Seoul. I remember him waveing out the cargo door with a bandaged leg propped up - I have cussed myself over the years for not getting some photos. Bert Brent Keywords: 13th Helicopter Co.
