T.E. MOORE wrote on September 14, 2011 City and State: Unit: Service or Relationship: OTHER Comments: An organized and armored Task Force of 23 US Army tanks in a regimental column, made up of M-46 tanks of the 6th.Battalion,"D" Company, and M4A3 tanks from the 70th.Tank Battalion, with men from L/3/5 aboard the tanks on the move. The tanks ran with 50-yard intervals between them. South of Chipyong-ni, the tank column entered a 150-yard long deep road-cut, with steep embankments 30-feet high, and on the right(east) side was Hill-397. There was a sudden flare-up of CCF gun-fire. The CCF hit the tank column with mortars, (American) bazookas,bangalore torpedoes,satchel charges,grenades, and small arms. A bazooka round struck the point tank, hitting the top of the turret, wounding tht tank commander LT.Lawrence L.DeSchweinitz,the gunner CPL.Donald P.Harrell, and the loader PVT.Joseph Galard, but the tank, as well as SFC.James Maxwell's 2nd., and the 3rd. tank all cleared the cut. The 4th.tank had a bazooka round penetrate the armor, and explode the ammunition in the ready racks inside the tank. The tank started to burn. The men in the fighting compartment, CPT.Johnnie M. Hiers(6th.Tank Battalion"D" Company Commander), CPL. John E.Trautman, and PFC.Micheal Lamagna were killed. The tank driver, CPL.John A.Calhoun was severely burned, but heroically kept the tank going, until it cleared the cut, thus leaving a clear path for the remaining tanks in the column, which ran this murderous gauntlet without loss, and moved on to save the garrison at Chipyong-ni.------------------------- Keywords: 6th.

In the fall of '52. we were moved to Camp McNair, on the side of Fuji, where our entire unit assembled. In June of 53, we were ordered to return to Korea. Heavy rains and volcanic ash made our movement down from Fuji to Numazu, where we loaded the Battalion on an LST, a treacherous trip. I was due to rotate back to the ZI, but I had the Personnel Sgt. Major pull my records, and I was in the last vehicle to load on. In late July, the armistice was signed and I headed home.
