Comments: I am desperatly seeking the men who served in the Korean war with my father. He does not speak of the war, he holds no pride in his decorations, he states he is no hero. I recently was playing around on the computer to gain as much knowledge as I could on my fathers ordeal when I came across a posting that he placed on this web-site. I am floored that he is asking anything about the war. He wants to find his his heros although he does not look at himself as one. Please help me to find them! My fathers name is EUGENE JOHN PASTORI,SR. I need your help!

I was at Panmunjom April 52-August 52 and then in Seoul until rotation in June 53. Some of the guys were Red Calebs from Kentucky, Gene Monk from California, Al Eisen from New York, Pat Patterson from Ohio, Woody Woodlawn from Baltimore. We had a good group of guys and a pretty good softball team to pass the time. I was from Pennsylvania but now live in Oklahoma. During our guard duty the slicky boys kept us on our toes.

Visiting Seoul

Robert (Bob) Barclay wrote on 2003-10-22 20:33:13.0

Comments: I will be visiting Seoul from 11 Nov. to 14 Nov. and would like to know what the 8th Army Hq. offers in the way of tours or visits. I'm told that there is a bus that takes tourists on a day trip to the DMZ. Is that correct?

I was a T-5 with the 207th MP Co. working in the Provost Marshal's office in downtown Seoul in 1947/48. This will be my first visit to Seoul since then.

I hope to hear from you soon as I leave LA on the 29th.

Sincerely,

Bob Barclay

Billeted at Korean Palace, Seoul

Column_1_Spacer Column_2_Spacer
Ron Thompson wrote on 2002-05-20 22:14:40.0

Comments: I remember being billeted at some 500-year old Chinese or Korean Palace not too far from the University of Seoul. There were big gates at the entrance and we lived inside in little rooms with sliding doors that had small paper window frames, something akin to French doors. The floor was made of mud and there was a place underneath to build a fire for warmth in the winter. There were two bunks to a room but I had the room to myself most of the time. Underneath the bed, there lived a big rat in a hole in the corner of the room. I stuffed the hole with newspaper but I could hear him chewing on it all night long. In the morning, I was all covered with flea bites. I tried DTD powder on the inside of my sleeping bag but nothing seemed to keep the fleas away.

Our mess hall was about 2 miles away from our "barracks" and we usually jumped in the back of a military vehicle headed that way at chow time. Since I was working odd hours, I often had to walk to the mess hall and when I got there the only food left was crackers and oleo and water to eat. We were feeding about 250 ROK soldiers and we had to share our food with them. They stood guard with us and they were pretty good guys, so I do not blame them for the food shortage.

I worked rotating 8-hour shifts as a high speed radio operator. We worked out of red brick buildings at Seoul University. It was mostly just doing monitoring work that was very boring.

I was transferred to Seoul from Taegu in Sep. 1951 and in October/November I got Manchurian Fever (remember the flea bites?) and was sent immediately to the hospital. I had to leave all of my personal belongings behind and never saw them again. After several weeks at the 121st Evacuation Hospital in Yongdongpo(sp.?), I was evacuated to an army hospital in Tokyo. The next 21 months were spent in Tokyo, Yokohama, Sendai, Sapporo and Hakodate. Then in October 1953, I returned to the States for discharge.

I wish that I could remember the name of my 8th Army Signal Units units in both Taegu and Seoul but time has erased all memory of the names of both men and the units I served with.

Maybe someone else has a better recollection than I.
