Comments: My father Morishin Uyehara is looking for any of his combat buddies still alive from the Korean War. Capt. Millet who he saw on a cable tv show talking about the Korean War and is a LT. COL. now , who talked to him before he was helicoptered out of Korea combat zone to a hospital in Japan when a gernade exploded in front of him and received injuries to his face. His Platoon Sgt. John Gary is another veteran he is looking for any information on. He has been trying to get in contact with anybody in the Us Army 25th division-24th infrantry regiment that served in the Korean War back in the 1950's. I think he said they were called Wolfhounds or Wolfpack who helped plug up holes in the front line. I am his son Jon Mori Uyehara trying to help him get in contact with his combat buddies my email is LOCOLBOYZ@AOL.COM If anybody has any information it will be greatly appreciated by a US Army Korean War Veteran. Thank You

Comments: We conducted S&R (search and recovery) of temporary burials of combat KIA personnel on the North Korean Communist occupied side. Each morning we checked into the Panmunjom Headquarters on the DMZ to get pass to go into Communist side to do our searching for remains using our map overlay of battlefield site burials. We of course had to give up our side arms, wear a yellow arm band to signify we had permission to be on Commmunist territory side doing our work. We were guarded by Communist Soldiers with fixed bayonets. They would ask us for "tobako" (cigarettes). We were restricted to answer, and communicate with them.
