Looking For Hanson? of color sile on our way home in Dec 53.

Comments: I was a Radio Operator in the 607th AC&W squadron from Jan 53 to Dec 53. We spent the entire year living in tents and riding the 6X6 trucks up the radar hill everyday. Sometimes the trucks had a hard time making it all the way up the hill during the winter or the monsoon season and we would all have to bail out. All F-86 flights were routed through our central radar control. Does anyone have a copy of orders for those of us shipping back home in Dec 53? I would like to find Hanson, whose first name I can't recall. He and I flew back to Japan together on our way back home and for some reason I wish I could explain now I gave him my collection of Kodak slides taken during my year in Korea. I'm sure that if even if I am remembering the name wrong he won't forget the guy that gave up his slides. I was part of the crew that set up a radar site along the Hahn river to catch Bed Check Charlie. It turned out to be a success and the Navy setup was able to shoot a few of them down. It is noteworthy that while we were on the detachment duty the Chinese were just a few hundred yards across the river and never fired a shot at us. By that time in the war we had pretty much destroyed their supply lines. Someone may remember this story: While we were setting up the portable radar we used some C4 to blow a hole big enough for a field latrine and a Marine jeep came racing up the hill to see if we had taken a hit. It turned out that the Marine detachment near our radar site had not been getting combat pay since there had been no enemy fire in several weeks. Is that really true? Here is a story that only my buddy would remember: He and I decided one day to take our day off and go see the front. We hitched our way up there and then just started walking up the road well past the artillery until a guy dressed in camo popped up and told us we were getting into a dangerous area. We never did see or hear much activity but hightailed it out and made our way back to our tent city.

Hillbilly/Gundeck 52-53

Comments: Comments: Getting ready to visit the WWII Memorial in Wash D.C.in June 2004, I found this great Korea website again. But like many of us, my memory wont lock-on without great input like you provided.

My recollection, like yours, is of the outfit with codenames like Gundeck and Hillbilly, and our detachment was just a few hundred yds from the Imjin River bridge, the 38th Parallel, and THE major MASH unit from TV fame (the 8055th) where we went to movies regularly.We were a couple miles from the DMZ on the main route 1(?) north from Seoul. Only names I remember is Mr Rose , who regularly was controller, Dick Stanisch, and medic Doc Newell. I remember often being shot at during No. Korean infiltration on the Imjin R. and the daily incoming MASH helicopters from the front sometimes with bleeding arms showing a few feet above us as they headed for the hospital just as the TV show portrayed.

I recall when, radar-watching a B-29 run with a Korean tailgunner, in mid-mission over Pyongyang he heard a Mayday and bailed out alone. We followed his flight on radar best we could and notified his hq. He later made his way thru the lines safely. Also remembering , during the rainy season in '52 , that No Korean infiltrators were coming down the Imjin on logs etc, and our Army guards were posted on the Imjin bridge potshotting them. We were shot at by them while scouting the nearby hills. Going all the way to Tong du Chon y to midnite Mass at Christmas with visiting Cardinal Spellman.

These ring any bells? Where can I get more data on outfits like ours and other guys? Thanks for bringing back great memories.

Comments: just stumbled on to this site, and I am in awe of what you are all doing.

I was assigned to the 607th AC&W Sq. in the summer of 1949, when it was stationed at Turner AFB, Ga. Served with that unit and its satellites units from that time to April 1952, when the original personal rotated back to the States.

I was assigned to the communications section.

It would be a delight to find, hear from, and/or to provide any historical information that I might add to the web site.

More: Thanks for the rapid reply about the squadron. We initially were sent TDY to the Far East.

After being there for about six months, all were made PCS.(God haven't used all these initials in long time)

Comm Section had a small group that was sent ahead. They were thrown into Forward Air Control jeep teams. We had those going all the time we were over there.

I would be more than happy to try and supply what little historical information about the Squadron I can.

I often think about the fellows that served, and of course, wonder what happened to them. As stated, I spent about two years with the unit. Started as PFC, and ended up S/Sgt.

Comments: I arrived at Yamato Air Station in Japan in Mar. of '56 and was sent to Osan-nee, Korea to a 607th AC&W site. Our call sign was "Green Horn". We were a few miles from Osan, Korea. During the year I was there I worked as a radar operator, operated the DF site and filled in for the mailman for a short period when he had to go home due to a death in his family. I am trying to locate some of the guys who were stationed there at the same time or anyone for that matter who was there during '56/'57. The guys I am looking for are Jack D. Whatley from Dade City Fla., Bill Huget from Madison Wisc., George Ball from Ft. Smith, Ark., James Parker from S. Carolina and/or Jim Mullinix from Baton Rouge, LA. I came home in early '57 on the MSTS ship, the Gen. Hugh J. Gaffey. Any help would be appreciated.

my 1 year at 607th

Comments: I arrived at 607th in Mar 1952 on my 1st assignment out of Radar School. In fact it seemed about a dozen of my classmates arrived with me. Some of their names...James Mitchell, Glenn Walden(what a comedian)!..Comer Stringer, Stueve, Sparr, Newton, Merrill. The Radar Maint. officer was Lt. Eby & C&E Officer was Capt. Pennington. The NCOIC of Radar was M/Sgt Smith. Cpt Pennington was pointing out to his boss an arc in the Radar Transmitter one day and was severely shocked by the arc. M/Sgt Gordon Smith then was credited with saving his life by giving him APR. I remember a 6X going off the side of the mountain & injuring several. We were allowed 2 R&R trips during the year. My friend Mitchell & I went 2 times to Nagoya Japan. When we finished our tour in Korea, the same guys who accompanied me to 607th were all sent to Tyndall AFB, Panama City, Fl to complete
