Comments: Looking for anyone who knew my Uncle Johnny. He was a navigator on a B-26 Invadera and was shot down Aug 7th, 1952 near Hwangju. His mother and father were my uncle Emile and aunt Ella Roessel and lived next door to us in Huntington Park, California. I remember when we got the word that his airplane was shot down and he was missing in action. I was 5 years old at the time. I still have a photo of him taken during WWII when he was going through flight training. In the photo he is stepping up into the cockpit of a Stearman biplane. We always hoped that he had survived and would come home at the end of the war.

Greetings:

I am Randy Dawson residing in Columbus, GA. near Ft. Benning. My dad was in the Korean conflict during early 50's, he does not talk much about it unless asked.

All I really know is that he was a Sargent, William C. Dawson, and prepared many parachutes. Having read about the Korean War, I want to learn more details. My dad is still living in TX, we talk now and then, however he has aged like the rest of us. I am unsure about how he feels about the subject. I read postings on the internet by people all the time, magazine articles, etc...
