Seeking info from RD 8057th AU APO 971 Basketball, baseball and football league players

Comments: My father Corporal Willie Edwards was transferred from the HQ 1st FA BN (Osbn) APO 358 to Inchon RD 8057th AU APO 971 in May 1955. He was responsible for sending out the monthly newsletter for the 936th Field Arterillary Battalion (combat assignment)during active combat in Korea.

Corp. Edwards also served under Brigadier General Mason Lucas, a graduate of West Point. He served for the Special Services I Corp in Korea 1955. My father relates that Brig. General Lucas asked him to set up an athletic program because of his degree in education and coaching experience.

Corp. Edwards said he obtained two metal buildings and made a gym for the teams. He organized an inside tennis court for Brig.General Lucas. Corp Edwards said he traded C ration coffee to the Koreans for labor to install a hardwood floor in the gym for the basketball league. He then looked over files to TDY soldiers into the Special Services I Corp. athletic program. Corp. Edwards then went to Japan and bought athletic equipment and proceeded to organize basketball, football, and baseball programs for the Special Services units in Korea.

These teams were called the Special Services I Corp Cannoneers. Corp. Edwards organized a tour of Japan during the Korean war after the armistice was signed. The I Corp Cannoneers played the Navy, Marines, and Air Force teams respectively.

In 1955 my father was rotated home. He received a letter of Appreciation from Brig. General Lucas for organizing their athletic program and my father coached and won the I Corp Basketball championship. He was then selected to coach the I Corp All Star Basketball team.

My father speaks of nothing more fondly than this remembrance of his role in the first Korean War after the armistice was signed. My father had the privilege of carrying his passion of teaching and coaching to the far East and serving his country doing what he loves best , coaching basketball and football.

I am seeking any service men who participated in these leagues or any service men who attended the games of these leagues in the first Korean War. I had no idea such a thing existed in the war once the armistice was signed.

I would love to be able to communicate any remembrances or events or special messages for the Special Services I Corp Cannoneers.

My father is ill, he is going blind, and well, he is 80 years old so every day with him is a blessing.

Please email or respond if you have any comments or questions.

It would so brighten his day to hear of these special memories. His heart is all American true blue apple pie and I am so proud to be the daughter of a man who served his country and took care of his family in every way as passionately he served in the first Korean War.

I would also like to hear from family members of deceased soldiers who may have served or remembers these Special Services.

Thank You.

Sincerely,

Michale Edwards

LOOKING FOR MY GRANDFATHER

Comments: I am researching Army photos from 1959 in Seoul Korea in a search to find my grandfather. My grandmother was a native of Korea in 1958-59 when she met a young Italian/Greek Army soldier and George from New Jersey/New York that she fell in love with and not long after that she was pregnant with my mother. When the young solider went back to the U.S., he wrote my grandmother and sent money for my mother. My grandmother’s stepfather did not approve of the situation so he wrote my grandfather back and told him that my grandmother and my mother had died. So, my grandfather has no idea that his daughter is alive and living in Atlanta, Georgia.

We are not sure of his last name due to the language difference between the two, but we have a picture of him and know his first name was George from New Jersey/New York, Italian or Greek and was stationed in Seoul, Korea in 1958/59. Since you had photos from and around this time, I was wondering if you were able to give my any helpful information that would help me find my grandfather. I do know he was around 6’0-6’2, dark hair and we also know he maybe had an usually last name, maybe Italian. Thank you so much for your time!

Comments: I was at Panmunjom summer of 1952 and have many pics and a few stories. As it was rather primative when I was there the Engineers tried to "pretty up" the area around the meeting tents. Set up twin guard shacks for the MPs to stand in out of the weather during the meetings. Made a walkway with stones to the latrine out back and planted small bushes around to improve the UN area. When the chinese/NKs saw this they built guard shacks for their guards but made them about a foot taller than ours. And they brought in full grown trees to plant to outdo ours. They brought them in a truck. The day they finished planting these trees in the afternoon and the delegates had already gone back to Munsan for the night, we were out on the road by the bridge of no return playing catch. We looked up and here comes the chinese truck barreling down the road toward us and he crossed the bridge of no return and surrendered to the Marines down the road. Shortly after he went by, two jeeps of Chinese came tering down the road but stopped short of the Marines. At the next days meeting the Chinese accused us of kidnapping the driver and the truck. For days afterwards the Chinese guards would walk around in our area peeking in our tents for the "kidnapped" soldier.

First of all , I personally thank your fighting for the freedom of Inje County, South Korea, My project is to find the soliders who are deeply related in LivingStone Bridge in Inje so I will let the people in Inje know the exact story about Livingstone Bridge. The story that i know goes as follow.

Livingstone Bridge- (The Livingstone bridge in Inje is located at 20 km to northwest from Hyon -ri. and 50 km to north from Tappung-ri)

Inje County, Gangwon Province, Republic of Korea is looking for Mr. Livingstone's family and his combat soldiers who fought for the freedom and died at an away from home. Inje County is planning to celebrate the 48 the anniversary of Livingstone and commemorate the heros in Korean War so that the monument will be erected and the people living here try to hand their name down to future generations.

It has been almost 48 years since the Bridge was constructed. This is the Bridge linking Deoksan-ri to Hapkang-ri in Inje County,Gangwon-Province, Republic of Korea.

In Korean War, 1951, during U.S-Korea joint military operation, A battalion commander, Livingstone(not known his full name) retreated strategically. But river's flood resulted from a sudden shower made it impossible to cross the river so that the artillery battalion had a lot of damages by falling into North Korean and chinese ambush. Many soldiers were died and a lot of military equipments and supplies were lost on May 22 -May 28, 1951. The Lieutenant Colonel, Livingstone(Not sure) was severely wounded.

Later He was died at a field hospital. Before he died he lamented bitterly " If there had been a Bridge, our forces not only would not have damaged but also could have winned that battle". He left the Will that was an earnest request saying "If I die , have my wife build a Bridge with private funds at Inje County, the battle field". --------------------------------------------

In order to find the forces that were related in Inje County during the Korean War, I have studed U.S army for a week. and I could find the 2 division which was the main force to secure Inje County from North Korea and red China. I could know many forces which belong to the 2 division such as the 23 rd infantry , 38th Fa,9 th infantry, 39th,the 187 RCT, 64th Tk Bn, 72d thbn 674 Fa Bn 127th Engineers.

311TH FBS, OSAN K55, 1956-57

Comments: Hi,

I was in the 311th Fighter-Bomber Squadron from April 1956 to April 1957. I was in the Airborne Fire Control section.

We rotated to Tainan, Formosa, every four months for a two month TDY on the Chinese Air Base in Tainan.

I remember Mark (Lubbock,TX) who was a fantastic artist with just a pencil and paper -- and his buddy, Bob, who was from the Oklahoma oil fields.

I also had a good friend, Bob White, who was a fantastic guitar player. I later learned that he went on to play with the Funk Brothers of Mo Town; and died of cancer a few years back. That was a great loss to me because I had dreamed of getting together with him again. He taught me to appreciate jazz music.

Names I remember: Joe Valdez, Jim Davis, Francis (from Boston), Ken (lucky to have any stripes).

One incident I recall was a big fellow, can't recall his name, with wild hair that stood straight up. One night he was on OD duty at the squad room, got drunk, and ran around with his 45 pistol raising cain.

Another incident was Lt. Bob Ford, one of the best officers I had the pleasure to know, who was killed when his plane crashed.

I would love to hear from anyone who was there.

God bless, have a wonderful day,

A Troop DMZ Recon Sqdn 9th Cav DMZ Police Co

Comments: Hello,

I am looking for anyone that served in "A" Troop, 1st RCN Squadron, 9th Cav. in 1958/59 and 1959/60.

While I was in the unit, we moved the compound (bag and baggage) from the area of Squadron HQ to North of Libby Bridge - some time after the move, the DMZ Police Co. was disbanded and we then took over duties inside the 'Z', we continued our duties south of the 'Z' as well.

Were you there? If so, please drop me a note!

I would like to invite all who view this to visit my "A" Troop web site and take a look around and see what duty in Korea was like back in 1959/60.

The web site is Cavalry Country; www.cavalrycountry.org

Everyone (vets, and non-vets alike), is always welcome at Cavalry Country!!

Stop on by, sign in and say 'Hello' Chuck Seabrook, where are you!?!?

Stay well my brothers!!!
