Comments: I am a Volunteer at the 1st Cavalry Division Museum. I served in Korea with 2nd Inf. Div. 97-98 and with the First Team 98-02. Goto saved the life of an eight year old japanese girl about 1950. She had fallen into a fast moving river and Goto jumped in and saved her. I would like to hear from anyone who remembers the incident and especially if anyone was an eyewitness. Me and some friends are trying to look into wether Goto might be eligible for the Soldiers Medal. To all Korean War Vets, Thank You for your service to the country. FIRST TEAM!

Comments: Looking for anyone who wishes to share stories, memories, historical documents / photographs, or anything else which can be used to record historical data and memorialize those who served in the 545th MP CO during the Korean War, Vietnam War, or WWII. Any information which you can give would be of great help. There is a great need in our country for the youth to understand the sacrifices of freedom. There are stories hich need to be told. With you help I can try to accomplish these goals. Speed is important, I am leaving for Iraq early next year and want to have the museum / memorial up and running before I leave.

Thank you for your assistance,
