JOHN E. BURTON - HHB 38TH FA, POW |
| JOHN BURTON JR. wrote on April 20, 2011 CITY AND STATE: NV UNIT: SERVICE OR RELATIONSHIP: FAMILY MEMBER Comments: My Father died in 1994. He was a career soldier (30 years), and was a POW in Korea for 3 years. He was with the HHB 38th FA Bn, wounded and captured in Nov/Dec 1950. I've got the official dates, details, etc in his military records, as well as information he shared with me. If anyone is interested in this information to post, I know my Father would have appreciated it, and I'd gladly share the information. I'm a Vietnam veteran and we are almost as forgotten these days! Also, do you know of any 38th FA sites or groups of veterans? I posted this information previously but used an e-mail address that is no longer valid. Keywords: 38th Field Artillery POW |

| JOHN JUSTICE wrote on April 28, 2008 CITY AND STATE: UNIT: SERVICE OR RELATIONSHIP: ARMY VETERAN Comments: I am a former State Police investigator and formerly worked for the largest intelligence agency in the world in the far east for several years. I recently returned from China where I lived near the North Korean border. During this time I spoke with people from North Korea and people who had relatives that lived there and frequently visited them. They were from three different areas in China and did not know each other. They all stated that Americans were seen working in several fields during the day and were guarded by armed North Korean guards. I also spoke with a European aid worker who told me where the dead were buried. After returning I gave this information to the following agencies and individuals; FBI - Seattle office (twice in person) White House - Washington DC email DPMO - Washington DC telephone conversation Email to Chuck Norris and Mike Huckabee NBC News ABC News CBS News CNN News Fox News Governor Bill Richardson before his trip to North Korea, 2007. To this date only Bill Richardson and DPMO has responded to me concerning this. Governor Richardson travelled to North Korea in 2007 and confronted the North Korean authorities with this information and urged them to clear this up as soon as possible. DPMO (Dan Baughman) who was with Governor Richardson on his trip and attempted to "debunk" all of my information. I am convinced there are some still alive from the Vietnam War and possibly the North Korean war there as my sources are reliable. This is not made up!! I have only dealed in fact based upon interviews and conversations from reliable sources. So everyone can deny this (denial of reality) if they wish. The sad fact is they are there and have been abandoned for whatever reason?? Just think of them during your "easy" life here and realize what price they have paid for you. I will never forget them.

SGT. KENNETH LEE GREEN |
| RANDY BROWN wrote on May 28, 2007 CITY AND STATE: BEDFORD TX UNIT: SERVICE OR RELATIONSHIP: FAMILY MEMBER Comments: My uncle Kenneth died on January 17, 1951 after being wounded, then captured and interred in an unknown prison camp in Korea on November 25, 1950. Kenneth was buried, presumably, in a mass grave in Korea. My grandmother was given the Bronze Star and U.S.A. flag in his honor. She was told by those that were imprisoned with him of his bravery. All of Kenneths brothers and sisters are now deceased. I have the flag that was given to my grandmother but would be interested in any further information from someone that might have served with him.

MISSING SOLDIERS |
| JOHN ROBERTS wrote on May 21, 2007 CITY AND STATE: UNIT: SERVICE OR RELATIONSHIP: ARMY VETERAN Comments: I recently lived near the North Korean border in Northern China. During this time I investigated and interviewed several persons who visit and have visited family still inside North Korea. They told me of Americans seen working in the fields of the North Korean countryside (east of Nampo and south of Kanggye). Some of the men were older (60-70) and some were 50-60 which would make them Vietnam veterans. Some of my sources told me they were placed there from Russia and China after diplomatic relations were being "normalized" with the US. I have formerly worked for a US Intelligence agency and I am a former state police investigator. I notified the FBI, Whitehouse, CBS, NBC, ABC and Mr. Bill Richardson the Governor from New Mexico. Mr. Richardson took my information last week during his recent trip to North Korea and informed a commanding general of the need to return these men and remains to their families. Mr. Richardson is the only person that took action on this information and responded to me to this date (5-21-07). If I learn more I will inform Mr. Richardson. There are live POWs there!!

ANYONE WHO KNOWS SGT.1 PRICKET |
| LISA MADDOX wrote on November 14, 2006 CITY AND STATE: JESUP GA UNIT: SERVICE OR RELATIONSHIP: FAMILY MEMBER Comments: I am trying to find ANY info. concerning Sgt. First Class James E. Prickett, my father. All I know is that he was a POW in Korea. I have a newspaper article from a San Francisco newspaper dated Sept. 10 no year. It is titled " Georgia POWs To Return Soon" It states that the Army has announced that 280 freed Korean War POWs will arrive here Wed. aboard the transport ship Gen. R.L. Howze. the last of the POWs. I have another clipping that is titled "Freed Alamo PW Given Joyous Greeting Here". It says Dad stepped off a plane at Cochran Field. It says that the family of another prisoner was there but the soldier,M.Sgt. Walter P. Spivey , was not on the plane. He had been taken to Jax. Naval Air Station Hospitol to be treated for tropical malaria. I was only 6 years old when my father passed away. I have no real memory of him. I am currently trying to get his service records from our govt. Everyone knows how difficult that is. His records were destroyed in the fire in Kansas. All I have is a picture, these two articles, and a certificate signed by Pres. Bush, honoring dad's memory and service to his country. If anyone knows any info. about my dad, PLEASE contact me. By the way, I am married to a Vietnam Era Vet. and his father is a Vietnam Combat Veteran. Thank You ALL for your service to our nation. May God be with you all. Lisa P.

JIMMY HENNESS |
| HEATHER MCCAIN wrote on August 1, 2006 CITY AND STATE: UNIT: SERVICE OR RELATIONSHIP: FAMILY MEMBER Comments: I'm looking for more info on my grandfather's cousin Pvt. Jimmy E. Henness. He died in Dec. 1950 in Hanjang-Ni. We've heard that he was executed, but don't know if this is true. He had barely turned 18. His parents signed for him to join when he was 17 and then he was captured 1 month into his service on July 14, 1950. Does anyone have more info on him? It would be nice to know that he was remembered by someone. Thank you so much, Heather Keywords: 24 DIV, Hanjang-Ni |
