Comments: My Uncle, Donald E. Keller, served in Tank Co of the 9th in '51 and '52. He still can't talk about it. The towns listed above were in his letters to my Grandmother with the dates he was in the area, but I have misplaced them. He didn't write anything about combat because he didn't want to alarm his mother. Until finding this website I have found virtually nothing about the 9th's organic tanks or the action they saw. Can anyone fill in a few blanks?

Thanks, Dan

Peter Duston wrote on 2010-04-07 08:13:55.0

Comments: I am an Army bugler (retired Army) with the Maine State Honor Guard. Gerry Scott was my substitute trumpet teacher in Wakefield, MA in 1950. He got me started as a Boy Scout bugler teaching me Taps. He is now apparently in an unknown grave in North Korea - no Taps for him. I often think of Gerry as I have played Taps over a few hundred known graves of veterans and deceased warriors.

At that time he was a master sergeant I believe. We got together in San Francisco and had a beer or two. Kelly;s nickname was dynamite.
