Comments: Seeking any information on 6131st food squadron from june 1950-december 1950. especially interested in conflict at pohang Korea. Nato tent set up as shortlived nco club. My father was tsgt David Emerson Whichard sr. retired M/sgt.

I have flag signed by entire squadron to my dad and a picture of nco club tent at pohang that was pictured in airforce times in october 1950.

Any help would be appreciated including any surviving members of the group who knew my dad.

Thanks

jon Whichard

My Dad was a t/sgt in the 6131st.  I have an article from the airforce
times dated oct. 4, 1950 regarding an NCO tent that was put up by an
unidentified group of airmen.  the photo showed several airman and my
dad saluting the photographer.  The pic was taken in Pohang the same day
it was bombed.  I also have the photo and the Handmade Nato sign they
made.  I also have a korean flag given to my dad from the squadron nov
11 1950 and signed by all members. any other info would be greatly
appreciated.
