FRANKLIN D. (FRANK) CARLSON wrote on October 4, 2000 CITY AND STATE: ELLENSBURG WA UNIT: SERVICE OR RELATIONSHIP: ARMY VETERAN - KOREA Comments: Enlisted US Army in October 1951 Basic at Camp Chaffee, Arkansas. some time at Fort Sill. Made it to Korea in October 1952 to B 75th. Went to serve howitzers of 2nd Rocket in October while they were at Chorwon, I believe. Our battery also sent two howitzers forward right across the road from the 2nd Rocket in the winter-spring of 1953. Dropped a round on my little finger winter of 1953 loading a trailer in the dark, so I had a light duty slip for about four months. Went through the hospital (another non-combat injury) at Pusan; asked if I could type, so I spent a few months typing up the rosters for ships bringing guys back. Typed myself on in September. Enlistment was over in September 1953. Still too young to buy booze when I got back, so my mother had to go to the store for her veteran son. Followed by college and 43 years (and counting) in education. I'm glad I got back, but I'm still glad I went. What I want now is a 1950 OD Ike Jacket big enough to hold me.
