Comments: I was a S/Sgt stationed on Kadena from Jan 1952 through December 1952. For the majority of that time I was NCOIC of the ECM Flight line and Maintenance shop.

It was great to find this web site and would be interested in communicating with any other veterans of this era.

Hi,
I served with the 307th BW from Oct 52- June 53, had 50 missions. I was
an ECM operator.  One of my buddies T/Sgt Berger L. Johnson was shot 
down either Dec. 52 or Jan 53. I forget which now. He was released in 
the last bunch from N. Korea. Never have been able to locate him. 

I believe he was from Rochester, NY. Also Capt. Ward, OIC; Lt. Newton, 
Lt. Jack Chandler, Buck Sgt Jim Fish, etc  There were only 13 of us in 
the ECM section. Great to see some info on the web.

I was a tail gunner on a B-29.  We flew 27 missions to N. Korea
from our base at Kadena on Okinawa.  Last 3 digits of our aircraft
were "977" We didn't have any nose art.  I'd be interested in
establishing contact with any other B-29 Korean War vets.
