811th at K-2, Taegu

Comments: While serving in Co. "C", 822nd Engineer Aviation Battalion at K-2 during the 51-52 time period, I faintly recall that a company of the 811th was also stationed there. I am hoping someone out there can confirm and refresh my memory.

Currently, I am writing a unit history of the 822nd and need to verify my remembrance of the 811th.

1903rd & 811th EAB Message: 42991 - Daniel Powell wrote on 2004-05-12 12:59:54, landman7@hotmail.com Unit: Comments: I was assigned to Co. "C" 1903rd EAB from Jan to July 1954 at Suwon as just another construction hand. From there we transferred (as a unit) to Co "B" of the 811th EAB and went by boat to Itami, Japan for a few months, but eventually settled on the island of Hokkaido, Japan. The airbase was called Chitose, and a more cold and barren place never existed on this earth. I got smart, told the CO I could type and served as company clerk until my departure in Nov. 55. I must say, I'm somewhat amazed that there are still a few of us out there.

Names I remember: Ellery Okada, Harry Gannon, Amos Kawee, Sylvester Kubiak, Duane C. Frohwein, Robert Wohlfahrt. I believe the C.O. was Lt. Ralph M. Clack.

I'll bet half these names are wrong, but the old memory can fool you at times.

For those looking for the SCARWAF patch (universally worn by all) it's a white winged sword on a Red Shield. I saw several while serving in Vietnam, but I don't think the original is available anymore.

Comments: My dad, Robert (Bob) Douglas Prather, was a Captain in the 822 Combat Engineers in Korea during the war.

He was from Georgetown, Kentucky and died of cancer in service at Fitz Simmons Army Hospital in Denver, Colorado, in 1955.

I'm sure you didn't know him, but he died when I was only 6. I am looking for links to possibly find out some of his army buddies to learn more about the dad I really never got to know before they are all gone.

Thanks for any help.
