Comments: My Uncle Walter, Walter Spees, was a repeaterman according to his dd214. He never talked about Korea and I am trying to help my cousin, Clifford, Wlater's son, with finding information about his father during this time. He was in Korea from Feb of 1953 to Jan of 1955. I do know he was shot and chased by dogs and later recieved a purple heart. He has passed and I am trying to fill in the pieces about this part of his life. If you knew him, could you please email or call. Thanks. I really appreciate any time you have.

Comments: I don't know exactly where our Tempest Main relay site was located after so many years, but we overlooked the DMZ and were visited nightly by a small aircraft dropping sand bags. I think we called him midnight Charlie but my memory is faded at age 77. Over the years, I have had contact with a couple of our team, great guys all of them, and wonder if the site is still in operation on our side of the DMZ. I have many memories of our base at Uijongbu but they are not very pleasant.
