Keywords: I have reason to be grateful to the 8228 Mash. I was evacuated to that hospital around July 1952 as a suspect Haemorragic fever case. Fortunately for me it turned out not to be but I received the very best of attention and as as the only British soldier in there at the time I was so impressed with the whole set up but in particular I remember the FOOD! It was the best I had known our there but surprisingly this view was not shared by my American fellow patients! Anyway thank you America and in particular vets of 8228 Mash. If anyone would like to contact me I would be delighted to hear from them.A very grateful ex patient.

Comments: I came into possession of a 17" square scarf/banner which has a large green dragon emblem in center on the diagonal, Miss Baldwin R.N. written to the left and 4th Ortho written to the right. I am looking for information on the full name of the unit, history of the unit and Nurse Baldwin if possible. I can email a photo if needed. Thanks for any help.

Comments: My name is Albert Hershkovitz, you guys called me Herk, I was in charge of the dispensary. I recall Bazzo as the photography, are you the one that took the pictures of the guys in our unit? I would like to get in touch and share in the pictures and stories. I remember singing with Gerard Gibbons, Paul Scwakeet(sp?). I would like to know if the chief of medicine Dr. Katz is still around and if so, where is he? I am in Cleveland, Ohio. After the war I did keep in touch with Dalton Hague from Florida, but he has passed on.

Comments: My Uncle served with the Lord Strathcona Horse Royal Canadians, and died in Korea in June 1952. Recently, I found the official telegram saying that he died of Haemorrhagic fever at M.A.S.H 8228. And a google search turned up this forum. Anyone who served there in June 1952, I would love to hear from you, esp. if you have photos, or can remember any Canadians.

Comments: The 542nd Med. Clr. Co. (Sep) provided support for patients recovering from haemorrhagic fever during the summer of 1952 when we were located at Uijongbu. When the big research MASH was set up on the south bank of the Han River across from Seoul during winter of 52-53, our unit provided security guards during the construction phase.
