Comments: My uncle Wilbur "BUD" Cox was a retired Navy Chief stationed for many years at Little Creek, VA teaching diving. Can anyone help me in knowing if he was in a UDT? His service began during WWII and he retired sometime, I believe in the late sixties, early seventies. He passed away a few years ago and I really never got to talk to him about his military career. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Dick Cox

Comments: I'm trying to find someone who knew my father Ralph Day He was a frogman ,Radarman and served on the mississippi and the DuPont. He was in the navy from 1957 to 1959 that I knew of. Most of his time was on the DuPont. I know he was in Korea and not much else. In frogmen training he had to sneak aboard a ship and take something to prove he was there. He took his captians hat back to school for proof. That was my Dad.If anyone remembers him let me know. Thanks

We have been told about his heroic deeds during his time in Korea as a "frogman". All of his medals and official papers have been lost. Help us honor this great man with any news that you may have. We would be ever so grateful.

Dad's service record
On Sat, 30 Nov 1996
Kari J. Hayes Email address wrote:
My father served in the Navy ('47-'67) and saw action in Korea (to put
it mildly). I'm attempting to obtain information on his service record
as part of a family history, and because I want what he did to be
remembered. He's still alive, thank god, but doesn't like to talk about
a lot of his experiences. I've requested his record from the archives
in the hopes that dates and locations will spur his memory about some of
his experiences, but I'd also like to get some background information
about what was going on at the time. He was in UDT, and served in Korea
from (I believe)'50 to'56. Do you know of, or can you recommend
anyone/thing I can go to for info on UDT and covert ops in Korea?. I
realize that this info is sketchy, and I'll get more detail from him.
Also, he was awarded a Medal of Honor, but it doesn't appear on his
certificate of honorable discharge (I'm obviously a civilian, don't know
the proper terms), but it does appear on his DS9 (I think that's what
it's called - a summary of his discharge status?). Any idea why this
might be - clerical error? He was seriously wounded in action a number
of times, and could have retired with full disability benefits, but
chose not to because he could still walk, talk and function. Now he's
retired and concerned about medical coverage - apparently Medal of Honor
recipients get free military medical coverage. He didn't worry about
what said what when he retired - never thought it would be important,
but to the government paperwork is everything. Any
recommendations/advice? Some of his physical problems are direct
results of combat wounds - both knees shot up/trashed from night drops,
lost teeth from shrapnel wounds, nerve damage from same, etc. He's
proud and won't research this stuff himself - but I want him to have
options.
I'm sorry for the long e-mail, but I've been looking for some help from
someone interested in the Korean War vets for a while. I'm glad you're
doing what you're doing - so many people seem to have forgotten about
Korea.
Thank you in advance for your time and any advice.

I used to be on the USS Chosin, and recently found out that a family
member was involved in the battle of the Chosin Resivor. He was a Navy
"frog man" and had something to do with the landing and possibly other
events. I told him I would look if any of his friends may still be
around.
His name is Nestor Aragon, on the USS Marquette AK95 small boats crew.
I'm not sure if your the person to ask about this but if you could pass
on some information I would appreciate it.
Regards,
Jason Serrano
