Comments: Just an update of my message which was last updated in 1998. In May of
2007 my spouse of 54 years died and so I am now a widower. But life
goes on. I am now 77 years old and still looking for any buddies from my
Korean experience. So far Lester Folz is the only one who responded. he
and I are in touch via E-Mail.

Comments: I just wanted to update my original entry of 1997. I found my class A pass
from Pusan from November 21,1951 to May 31, 1952, when I came home.
I am 76 years old and still in good health in San Luis Obispo, CA. We were
attached to the 192nd. Ordnance Depot. Called OBD 1. Several of us, 21
guys who served in Pusan together from San Luis Obispo are still alive
and meet regularly at the American Legion Post 66 Clubhouse. Tony
Herrera, Jim Neal, Wally Powell and myself Frank Rowan.
