Comments: My step-motherand her daughterrs destroyed all my father's things, including his military pictures. He served from 1939 until he was injured in 1951. If anyone has a group photo and would make a copy, I would be grateful. My father actually picked my husband, who served in the Air Force 23 years. Three of my four sons have served, two in both the Marines and the Army, one retired from the Army and one is an active-duty Colonel. My daughter was a Captain in the AFROTC but married her sophomore year. My fouth son is a chronic asthmatic and was denied by all five branches (that includes the Coast Guard). My father was at Ft. Sam when he and my mother met. He served at Santa Monica, Ft. Bragg, Hot Springs, and Ft Benning state-side and fought in Africa, Italy, and Korea. I was nine-years-old when he left for Korea, so that's all I remember. I don't know what my mother did with my letters. She re-married when I was four-years-old.

I work out of Osan AB and would like any former member of
the 839th Engineer Aviation Bn. to know that their handiwork still
survives.
I have a picture of the loading platform at base supply which has a
very large block of cement on which the base supply building rests
inscribed with "CO A 839th Engineer Aviation Battalion 1952".

From: Kay Rathjen Email address
My uncle, Dewey Pfister, served in Korea during 1952 - 1953 and is very
interested in locating Mash L. Tatum, Jr. Originally Dewey knew that
Mash was from North Carolina. My uncle does not have a computer, any
information that you can supply will be passed on to him. The second
person that Dewey would like to locate is Robert Weaver, originally
from Buffalo, N.Y.
The unit that these three men served in together was the 839th Engineer
Aviation Battalion. Please, if there is any way to locate these men,
let me know. I know that this would be very rewarding to my uncle.
