DMZ IRON TRIANGLE 1958 |
| SUZE GROEBNER wrote on November 30, 2011 CITY AND STATE: KANSAS CITY MO UNIT: SERVICE OR RELATIONSHIP: FAMILY MEMBER Comments: My father, William Dale (Bill; W.D.) Bowles, 71 years old, passed away suddenly and unexpectedly this past June, 2011. About five years ago, I learned from one of his life-long friends that my dad, unbeknownst to his parents or siblings, enlisted in the army in March or April of 1958, went through six weeks of basic training at Ft. Leonard Wood, Missouri and was then immediately sent to Korea and stationed somewhere in the DMZ, in an area referred to as the Iron Triangle, to serve as an M.P. My dad told his friend about this quite some time ago but insisted that he not share it with anyone - especially family. My dad and I were always close, even so, I didn't hear this story until recently. According to my dad's friend, when he got to Korea, my dad quickly learned that Korean snipers were coming in at night and taking out American soldiers. After watching this happen for a few weeks, my dad supposedly went to his C.O., a man he called, The Colonel, and told him he could help solve the problem. Because the situation had become so severe, The Colonel essentially told dad to do whatever he thought he could. My dad grew up in the country. His family survived on what they could hunt and/or grow. Dad and his brothers were raised in the woods. Dad said American soldiers were quickly and easily tracked, found and killed because of their heavy boots while the snipers were like ghosts. They knew the woods, went bare-footed and were difficult to track. My dad said that in order to find them, he had to stay in the woods, silent and bare-foot for days/weeks at a time. Apparently, he became quite successful at stalking and taking out snipers. His friend said that with only a knife and a pistol, my dad decommissioned between 15 and 20 snipers per night. After a few months, the problem was basically eradicated, The Colonel got a promotion and my dad had a good sized bounty on his head. The Colonel called dad in, thanked him for all he'd done and said he was going to save dad's life by transferring him out of Korea. The Colonel told dad he could go wherever he wanted and offered him the opportunity to train other soldiers in Europe, Hawaii or anyplace more hospitable than Korea. Dad surprised him by telling him that he wanted out... wanted to go home. The Colonel was unable to convince him to stay so after telling my dad that there would be absolutely no record of his existence in the military, the Colonel sent my dad home. As I said, I first heard this story from dad's friend, about five years ago and honestly, it took almost two years for me to process the information enough to believe that some of it might be true. Even so, out of respect for my dad and out of respect for his friendship, I never asked about it. Until.... On a really good day, five months before he died, Dad and I were sitting in a little cafe, drinking coffee and having breakfast together. Things were going so well that I thought o.k... it's now or never. I asked Dad if he'd ever been in the military. Without saying yes or no, he looked down at the table and started talking. Like a big bucket of water spilled onto our table, his story spilled out faster than I could catch and contain it. Although I had plenty of questions, I just let him talk. The subject was, understandably, very emotional for him and I thought I would ask my questions next time we were alone together or whenever he was ready broach the subject again. But that never happened. Sadly, he died a short time later and as stated earlier, his death was very sudden and unexpected. He was right about there being no records. Several years ago, he was told that any of his existing records were destroyed in a fire in St. Louis. I've tried to find county induction records but clerks at the county seat don't seem to know what I'm talking about. I'm not good at this kind of research so I may be looking in the wrong place/asking the wrong questions. Dad spoke very highly/fondly of the Colonel but couldn't remember his name. He thought the Colonel died (a few? several?) years ago. It would thrill me to know this man's name. I'm certainly not looking to collect benefits. It's probably far too late for that and he didn't want them. I don't need them. I simply and desperately hope to validate this story because it's such an incredible one. Until recently, virtually no one knew about this significant time in my dad's life. My dad was an honest and loving man but deeply wounded. This story provided tremendous depth for understanding who he was and why life had been such a challenge for him. I will always be thankful for the insight. His friend who knew the story has, on more than one occasion, called him a hero. My dad did not think of himself that way. He was, in fact, deeply ashamed, saddened and horrified by his experience. He was disturbed and haunted by the memories throughout his life. In a time of unofficial war, he took the lives of many men in order to save hundreds of his fellow soldiers. He was only 18 years old. After Korea, I think my dad spent 53 years looking for some sense of balance and normalcy... a profound and solitary search for peace and forgiveness within himself. I don't know that he ever really found it. He was a good man; generous, loving, funny, youthful and charming. He was genuinely loved by family and friends - people unable to define or recognize his on-going battle against the torment of demons who continued to follow him, long after his return from a war they knew nothing about. The people closest to him didn't even know he'd served in the military. He worked hard to protect us from the residual darkness of that time. Does this resonate with anyone else out there? Do you know anything about this particular time and place? If so, please contact me directly at: suze@abovethegrind.net I will sincerely appreciate any relevant information or story you might have to share.
