Looking for Thomas/Thompson

Comments: I served in Korea during Aug. 1951 to Sept. 1952. When on R&R in Japan, I had a silk screen picture of my wife and also one of a friend's daughter or sister made. The last name of my friend in Korea was either Thomas or Thompson. I would like to get this silk screen picture to him. Have had both pictures in the original package from Tokyo, Japan for all these years. The friend is British and also gave me most of his month's pay to go on R&R. Would love to hear from him or any relatives who may have heard this story. The last I heard from him he was living in Washington, DC.
