THRUOUT S and N KOREA The Raiders were established as a special patrol group that went behind enemy lines and disrupted activities. There was a 1st Raider Co. and later for a shorter while, a 2nd Raider Co. The Raider Co. consisted of (9) ten man boat teams and staff (about 4 including an extra Lt.) The 1st Co. Raiders landed at Kunsan on Sept 12th. 3 nights before Inchon. They are credited with saving untold lives at the Inchon Invasion because the NK took the bait and moved to Punsan with most of their available manpower. About the extra Lt. Come to find out he was needed. You see Lt. Clance was lost on the first raid Dad had no idea what happened to him until you found out for us. There is a bit of confusion about the Raiders as to the Rangers. The Raiders did not jump. They did have to swim 2 miles to get into the Raider Co. though. I will send you more info as I get it put together. I would love to hear from anyone else of the less than 200 men that were ever Raiders . Note the new e-mail address Keywords:
