FROM 1950 TO JAPAN TO KOREA FOR INCHON BY SEA

Comments: of the fearless five we shared a tent, bartered malt, played thousands of canasta games, salvaged radios from wrecks, at Teagu Cpl Art Weart lighted the airport and provided it's tactical phones with operators from the town before going back to Pohang. One time four F-80's were lost above the cloud layer and using Marine DF managed to land 3 (the fourth out of gas was lost but pilot bailed out OK). Art enabled a B-25 to return to Japan by fixing it's VHF radio - and helped refuel other B-25's by adding gas to tanks from 5 gal jerry cans.

Prior to leaving Hamhung Cpl Weart had to destroy a C-46 with China markings that had a gear up landing one night and was blocking the only runway - (being used to evacuate round the clock flights). Damn hard - used a Marine tank to haul it off and then mash it to scrap. Could not make it burn - tried mag, gas, flares, nothing. Got got a marine tank to mash it up. worked fine. The tankers thought so too.

Fearless five of the Dirty Thirty

Comments: On arrival Sept 1960 HQ 5th AF Nagoya Radio Repair shop, then to one of two 15 man AF Comm repair Units formed at Nagoya and sent by train to Yokahoma and 15 of us went by ship to Inchon invasion to Kimpo (other 15 flew to Kimpo) to Wonson to Hamhung/Hungnam to PoHang when unit disbanded after 9 mos with personnel scattered in '81. One older guy from Utah took lots of photos - ???

Five of us bunked in a tent - one a black guy from Boston - and called ourselves the fearless five of the dirty 30 and we really didn't do a lot but were available to fix or install comm stuff where ever we happened to be.

Have no idea what out official group name was other than we wound up with a 67 total personnel with some 65 vehicles and one L5 airplane (and a boat at one place) for a while.

Yongjongdo Island Homing Site (TK)

Comments: My Internet Address has changed since I entered info earlier. It is now, gerpa@sbcglobal.net and with DSL, which I am trying to master. Anyway, I was at Kimpo (K14) for a short time and then was selected to go out to the island of Yongjongdo (as a radio operator) and set up this homing site with the call letters of (TK) (TANGO KILO) (DAH, DAH DI DAH) Was only supposed to stay 3 months and rotate back to Kimpo but I kept voluteering to stay there and I put 9 months in out there. If anyone reads this,I would appreciate a contact. I have already made contact with some guys who were at Kimpo when I was there and we send things back and forth from time to time. I have met some Korean people here in Indiana from around that area and they tell me that the island has been incorporated into Inchon and the Seoul area and is now a large airport. I guess they built bridges across the water or filled it in. Anyway I am sure it doesn't look like it did when I was there 55 years ago.
