I was told by the son of Major John Cummings, who was my CO in Korea, that he had passed away and he and his wife are buried in Battlecreek, Mchigan. Then Captain Robert Tribolet who retired as a colonel in Sarasota, Florida, and had passed away; his grand daughter emailed me once. I have pictures of Major Cummings in Korea, (of which I had sent copies to his family) and a business card of Captain Tribolet. I also have a group pictue of the 600th AISS taken in Tokyo, Japan with identification of the people whom I work with. I thank you for this exposure. Stanford S. Lee Keywords: Detachment #1 in Korea

To the day he died he was not allowed to talk about what he did. And he kept that promise. I'm just wondering if I can find out anything about what he did. I just would like to know a little more about my father that I didn't know before. My dad was TSGT Lawrence G. Lauer. He joined the AF in 1948 after graduating high school in St Cloud, MN. Dad was a photographer when I was just a child, so I think he may have done something similar in the AF. Any information would be appreciated. I'm a Marine Corps Veteran myself.

STANFORD SOONG LEE wrote on March 29, 2008 City and State: FRESNO CA Unit: 6004TH AIR INTELLIGENCE SERVICE SQUADRON Service or Relationship: AIR FORCE VETERAN Comments: March 29, 2008 Saturday. Having been originally from Hanford, California and enlisted into the air force on 6SEP50 and discharged on 5SEP54, I am thinking that I happen to have been the only person from the California Central San Joaqun Valley who was assigned to the special unit that was the 6004th Air Intelligence Service Squadron with its headquarters in Tokyo, Japan, during the Korean War. When I was assigned to Korea from 1952 to 1953, before being returned to our headquarters for 1953 to 1954, there was a special meeting that occured in my life. After several of us fellow airmen decided to see a movie in Seoul, Korea, and after the movie, as we were exiting; the door that I came out was Cardinal Spellman of New York, waiting to greet us. As he shook hands with me, he prayed for me immediately and that had to be a special moment for me. I believe that Cardinal Spellman's prayer was a factor that prevented me from being harmed. I also found out in recent years from my friends, Paul Ono, of Gardena, California and Vernon Hof, of Dothan, Alabama, that there were personnel who were Generals, Colonels, etc. who had served in the Japanese military during WWII and worked for us during the Korean War. I did not realize that, for they wore civilan suits and I saw them every monrning entering the Esquire Building where we worked. God bless you. Stanford S. Lee Keywords:

I served two years in the Far East during the Korean War from 1952 to 1954. After going through orientation at our headquarters in Tokyo, Japan, the 6004th AISS assigned me to Seoul, Korea where I served on the compound of the 5th Air force Headquarters from 1952 to 1953 that was across the road from the 8th Army Headquarters. The air force awarded me three battle stars for serving in 3 battles area that year. I was return to Tokyo and served in our headquarters from 1953 to 1954 before returning to the states. I found out only about 10 years ago from my friend, Paul Ono, that my work was published. I did research work for my CO, then Captain Robert Tribolet. I felt that it was an honor to have been able to served in the air force, but my heart longed for home. I am the 4th of 5 brothers who served in the armed forces. My 3 older brothers, Gilbert (Army), Harold (army) and Ray (Navy), served in WWII. Our youngest, Frank and I served in the air force. My favorite brother Harold was killed at the age of 18 on June 30, 1944 on the battlefield of Normandy. Wanting him to be remember by the family I had an army display put together for him that took exactly one year to the month to have it done and the display somehow enabled me to be with a group that met the president of the United States in the Oval Office in Washington, DC on October 25, 1999, the day before the premiere film of Chinese American who served in the armed forces during WWII that included Harold's picture and V letter. I am deeply grateful to the Lord for opening the door for Harold to be remember in the highest place in this great country of ours! Sincerely, Stanford S.
