I remember SFC John Hickey, whose message is above but no email address. He was in Fire Direction, then Field First Sgt; a tall, handsome fellow, with a good head on his shoulders and as easy going as circumstances permitted. Lt. Robert White, a West Pointer, was my favorite all-time officer. He pulled much extra duty as FO and managed to beat the two days average life span for Forward Observers. I recall Sgt. Mangrum's explanation for being awarded a Silver Star: " I was the only one with a dime for the Coke machine!" Actually, he was in enemy territory, crouched behind a rock wall and batting Chinese soldiers in the head with an entrenching tool, as they jumped over the wall. Darrel Ivy, from Sgt. Arnold Naum's No. 1 gun crew, attended my wedding and Robert Barr and I ran into each other in Mississippi but, I haven't heard from anyone else since we were in Korea, then Hokkiado, Japan.
