Comments: I submitted an entry in 2001 asking for any information on a dear buddy, Donald R. Coe who went over with me on a troop ship. after much searching and much to my disappointment, I located Don's wife who informed me he had passed away two weeks before I contacted her. But, she and I have been communicating via e-mail and last year, she met me in Yuma Arizona in that she had moved from NY to Phoenix and we have established a great friendship since. Thanks to all who may have tried to assist me.

Comments: I went to Korea with Donald R. Coe and we both went on the same troop ship. We became good friends and saw each other in Pusan, Korea a couple of times when he came down. I do not know what uni he was in but I believe infantry and was a draftee. He quickly rose to the rank of master sergeant so assume he was in combat most of the time. He was from Albany New York. Anyone who knew him p[lease e-mail me.

Keywords: Don and I went over on same troop ship.

Comments: Would like to hear from you. I hope that you have
information on Linwood Hutchinson. He was my Best
Man at my wedding in 1952. Lost track of him over the years. Hope he is still living.
Kenneth E Taylor Sr


Keywords: My Best Friend while in the unit was S/Sgt
Linwood Hutchinson. We lived in the NCO tent on the left as you entered the walled compound that
we were quartered in. Our MP Station was located down Town PUSAN. I use to drive patrol in the city
in MP Jeep. Some times I would travel all the way
out to the check point that had two MP's on duty
way out pass Hialeia. Do you remember the Truck that we mounted armor and Machine guns on and was
made to look like a regular truck for convoy duty
escorting convoys out of Pusan. When the enemy attacked the canvas was dropped and the machine guns would fire protecting the convoy from the
enemy in the hills. Have you heard from any other
memebers of the unit.
