Comments: My grandfather was PFC Delmo Ralph Howard, and he served in HQ Co with the 724th in 51 and 52. Unfortunately, he died in 1966 long before I was born. I have no memory and very little information about him. Im trying to get in contact with anyone that might have known him or served with him. At the very least if someone would please contact me with information where I could find a Unit patch for the 724th Id be very grateful.

Thanks for your time and service.

Comments: Hello, I am a volunteer at the Air Force Space and Missile Museum here at the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. Within a few weeks we will be adding a locomotive to our outdoor "rocket garden" at the museum. The locomotive is a EMD SW-8 Switcher number 2021, it has been used here at the Cape since 1965 to move around components of the Titan rocket. At one time locomotives numbers 2000, 2007, and 2021 were all here at the Cape, we understand that all three of these were also with the 724'th in Korea. We are looking for anyone who can tell us more about 2021---so that we may share its complete history with the visitors to the museum. I look forward to hearing from anyone who might be able to help, thank you.

Comments: I was an engineer in the 724th Railway Battalion, running between Pusan and Taejon, and some yard work, from Apr 1954 to Feb 1955. I remember that the Commander was Capt. Stankovich at that time, but have trouble remembering hardly anyone else. I trained at Ft Eustis from Apr 1953 to Mar 1954 with the 714th Railway Battalion. Sorry to say that I have very few pictures.

Comments: My father was Bill Dunn. He passed away a few years ago but in an old photo album, I have found photos of his time in Korea. I am still waiting to recieve his records but know he was in Korea from Jul 1953 to December 1954. There is a photo of the sign for the 724th so I am assuming that is where he was based from. He was originally from the Pittsburgh, PA area. A few photos have names but most say things like "the old gang." I would enjoy hearing from any veterans that served during this time frame about your experiences. Is there a site where we can post photos?

Comments: I recently met a veteran soldier and railroad engineer who proudly recalled his service with the 724th Railway Operations Battalion, arriving in Korea from Danville, Va. at the outbreak of the Korean War. He recalled the supply and hospital runs between Pusan and Seoul, and later the tense runs from Seoul to the front after the Chinese assault. He is retired from the service and the railroads, but keeps his hand in as a trainman aboard a private vintage train, helping children and parents aboard for the 60 minute ride into history. He would be pleased to hear from any of his old buddies. His name is Lawrence Hugh Clarke,a third generation railroad engineer.

Comments: The Korean War is the truly forgotten war. Everywhere I go, or every article I see or read about wars, very little mention is given about the Korean War. The Vietnam veterans tried to lay claim to the fact that theirs was the forgotten war but we Korean veterans know better. The media is just now beginning to give us our long overdue recognition for being the TRULY FORGOTTEN WAR!!!
