Last of the 839th

Comments: I was with the 839th EAB "B" Co. in 1955. I have some fond memories of the mess hall on the side of No Sweat Hill and Spam Creek. I was the last members of the 839th in Korea before we handed all of the equipment over to the Korean nationals. I was later transfered to the 802nd at Itazuki AB in Japan to finish my tour. Any body around from those days, drop me a line at Methaman98@hot mail.com...Catcha later...Ron

Served w/ 839th/1903rd EAB

Comments: I transferred into the 839th up on the hill by the main gate of K-55 in Late December, 1954 from the 1903rd, K-6 at Pyong Taek. 1903rd was being deactivated (see my entry for 1903rd) and I didn't have required time in country to leave. First assigned to "A" company doing details around the company. Detailed to the base Air Police for 30 days, we were the equivalent of the vice squad, raiding whore houses & sending the troops we caught back to the base. No, we didn't arrest anyone. Since I was a quartermaster-trained killer, I was detailed again to AF base supply honchoing a group of Korean Laborers putting crashed airplanes in big crates for shipment to Japan. Seemed to be a lot of work for us. Transferred to Ft. Leonard Wood in July, 1955. Wonder if anyone remembers me? Bob Taylor or Tailor from San Diego? I went on to do 20 in the Air Force in broadcasting and public affairs. Totally retired now. Last job was as media relations officer for the Corps of Engineers in Los Angeles. Sort of fitting to begin and end my association with the government in the Corps. Norm Medland, MSgt, USAF, Retired
