Comments: Worked on Imjin River and Bloody Baldy, was roaming heavy equiptment mechanic.

When Ist Cav was pulled out, I was one of the few whom had to remain in Korea and was assigned to the 45th Infantry Division. The only one out of our outfit that remained with me was Claude Lanham, from Elizebethtowne Ill.
