NAKTONG GUNNERY RANGE |
| HAROLD FANNING wrote on February 4, 2010 CITY AND STATE: KANEOHE HI UNIT: 803 INSTALLATION SQUADRON SERVICE OR RELATIONSHIP: AIR FORCE VETERAN Comments: I spend a short time at the Naktong Gunnery Range on the Naktong River before I returned to the states in May 1953. I have returned to Korea 4 times, twice visiting military sites. The last time was at Hahoe a 600 year old historicdal village and judging from photos taken and viewed after returning sensed that I might have been close to the gunnery range which had been manned by 27 from the 3rd detachment of the 49th Fighter Bomber Wing. I would like to relocate the site and need clues or coordinates as to its location. Once confident of success I hope to return to that same site to satisfy a urge since only a few references have been found on the internet. I have photos of the location and per Google Satellite have followd the route taken up the Naktong River but am unable to locate it. It took me 5 hours in a 6by each direction and my notes also indicate it was an 83 mile trip from K-2 near Taegu. I spoke with several on the phone who were there,and at that time they weren't sure where they were. Also I have a 1953 K-2 newspaper describing life there but not its location. Hahoe is close to Andong. I can email photos to any interested person. aloha Harry Keywords: Naktong Gunnery Range |
