Wendell C Boyer

Comments: I am trying to help my father find someone that might remember him from the war. He was started out in the war in the 7th Cavalry, and ended serving with the 8th Cavalry and was injured in the war on June 11, 1951. He was held as a POW/MIA, but not held in an actual camp, and is trying to prove this. His family also received a telegram that said that he was KIA. Since all of his military records were burned, he is trying to connect with anyone that would remember him. When he was taken POW in the area of Shie-by-ni (SP?) on July 28th 1951, and was held captive with several members of the 7th Cav.

Looking for information about John McKenzie

Comments: Recently I had an Regression therapy. I went back to a former life and called myself John McKenzie. I died during the Korean war in 1953. I like to check I I'm crazy or did I really reïncarnate after I died in Korea. Please send me some information about him. I was shot nearly in half. I saw also a green kitchen and a small wooden table with four chairs around it. The chair had dark blue pillows to sit on. I think that the mother in law of John lived with them.

Sorry for my bad english. I'm dutch and did my best to be as clear as I can.

Hope to find someone who can give me any information about John McKenzie.

PFC. Henry G. Behning Jr / Company G

Comments: My father was assigned to Company G 8th Cavalry Regiment, 1St Cavalry Division from approximately the end of 1950 to the end of 1951.

If anyone still alive knew him or served with him I would like to hear from you.

I know you men went through hell as my father was wounded several times and had his teeth knocked out by the butt of a chinese rifle (the chinese got knifed for his efforts) he had had a lot of shrapnel in him still when he died in 1995. My dad was a WWII Veteran of the Navy in the Pacific as well. (Destroyer)

I know he carried the BAR and was involved in H2H as were all of those brave men.

Please email me if you have any greater details of which battles and what happened.

I am a disabled veteran as well and I would like to be able to tell my family what happened. My dad did not talk much about what occurred but being a veteran myself and taking one look at him gave anyone a good idea of what the hell he must have gone through.

Thank you in advance and thanks to all the men who served lived and died in that God forsaken shit hole.
