On the Other side It reads K-9 and at the bottom Korea with a pic of an A26. The handle is a naked woman. Under the tiger emblem it looks like it says Dean and Pat, but that part is quite faded. Does anyone know about the history of these. K-9 was Pusan East, and the 37th was there in 1952 but thats all I've found so far Keywords:

MONICA WILES wrote on October 31, 2005 CITY AND STATE: HARDY AR UNIT: SERVICE OR RELATIONSHIP: FAMILY MEMBER Comments: I am curious to learn anything I can about my grandpa's time in Korea. His name was Marshall Wayne Miller, he would have come from Arkansas, and he served in something to do with communications. He never really talked much about his time there and only ever told a few stories that I remember as a child. He passed in the early 1990's from a brain tumor and before he had gotten extemely sick, he burned most of the things he had kept from Korea. I feel that he saw quite a bit of action just from the stories I do remember. Not really fighting, but being fired on or seeing others killed or shot and t he nightmares that he would have. He told about one night being sent out on repairs and taking a bullet to the ear and after having returned, the lines were downed again and the crew that was sent out to replace their's was lost and some were taken hostage and are MIA to this day as best we know--no bodies ever recovered. Like I said, there are so many mysteries surrounding my grandfather and his time there that we would just like to have some info to be able to pass on to my kids and my younger cousins who never had a chance to know him. My grandmother doesn't share the things she remembers and we do not understand why. I don't want my grandpa's sacrifices to just be tossed away with the years. Any help would be appreciated.

(MICKEY) ASH wrote on November 6, 1999 CITY AND STATE: SPRING HILL FL UNIT: 37TH BOMB SQ. 17TH BOMB GP SERVICE OR RELATIONSHIP: AIR FORCE VETERAN - KOREA Comments: I was supply Sgt. with the 37th from Oct 52 to Oct 53. Spent the first couple of months in Korea at K1 while the were finishing the runways at K9. Spent many hours at Miho while procuring supplies for the officers mess. I have many pictures of the bases and planes and lots of our fellow airman at K1 and K9. I have fond memories of those people even though I can't remember most of the names any more. Left Korea in Oct l953 and spent the rest of my service at Niagara Falls AFB in the 47th FIS. Been checking for years for a reunion of these units. Still pay my dues to the Airforce Association. Nice chatting with you. Keywords: Moto,Smash Friends:Harvey Scwartz NY, Reecie Blevins, Carlton California
