RON KEELER wrote on January 30, 2011 City and State: WOODSTOCK VA Unit: Service or Relationship: NAVY VETERAN Comments: There were four C 4 ships. Pine tree, Free State, APA 248 and AKA 112. Enter C 4-S-1a mariner in your search engine for info but no photos. The Pine Tree became the luxury liner Mariposa in 1957. APA 248 was the USS Paul Revere, and AKA 112 the USS Tulare. Hope this helps a little in your search. Ron Keeler Keywords:

They were both built in 1952 and sailed during the Korean War for the Korean War. I've searched many private and US government sites in vain. I hope someone can direct me to find that photo or provide it to me if they have one. I would appreciate that greatly.

ROBERT HOWTON wrote on July 1, 2003 City and State: PORTLAND OR Unit: 62ND TROOP CARRIER WING Service or Relationship: FAMILY MEMBER Comments: My dad was Crew Chief of C-119 S/N ending 537 at Ashiya AB, Kyushu, Japan. My family lived in housing at Kokura Army base next to the military jail facility. I remember exploring many times the air raid tunnels there, and going to the pagoda on top of the hill next to the housing area. I remember that my dad lacerated his hand severely on an aircraft surface in I believe Pusan and almost bled to death as it was so cold that he could not feel the injury until someone told him he was bleeding. Prior to that time, he was also the Crew Chief for the aircraft at Wright Patterson AFB, Dayton, Ohio that Ace Major Richard I. Bong crashed in and was killed. My dad was supposed to have been on that flight, but for unknown reasons had stayed on the ground that day. Keywords: C-119 Crew Chief, flights from Ashiya AB, Japan to all areas of Korea and return.
