locatated now at camp casey was the rear area, both the 7th and 25th
division`s was in that sector we were a 155 howitizer unit so we

I happened upon your web site while searching for my father. He would
like to find others from the 623 Field artillery battalion. He was
stationed in Korea from April 1952 to July 1953. 

My Dad's full name is Dirk John Kleyn, he went by John.  He was a 
gunner, highest rank was Sgt.  Company Charlie, 623rd field artillery.
He is especially looking for Slim Estes from Corpus Christi TX who was
injured by the recoil of his howitzer.  As I stated before he was there
from April 1952 to July 1953.  I am sure that he would enjoy hearing 
from any of those that served with him.


Thank you,
