NORMAN E. GREEN wrote on June 3, 2006 CITY AND STATE: VERNON ROCKVILLE CT UNIT: 335 FIS SERVICE OR RELATIONSHIP: AIR FORCE VETERAN Comments: Dear 801st MAES, Please help me find an old USAF buddy - 1/Lt Richard Hudson. He was a graduate of Pilot Training Class 52-D. That was in June, 1952. The last time I saw him was in Korea in 1953 flying C-47 medical evacuation missions out of Seoul airport to evacuation stations near the front lines. I don't know if the 801st was his unit or not. But he invited me to be his co-pilot on one night mission. Since I was an F-86 jock out of Kimpo, I thought he was nuts - I'd never seen the inside of a C-47. I was sure he was nuts when he made a blacked out landing on a strip of SPS seemingly no bigger than a tennis court. Dick was a cool head, so I figured it was guts not nuts. He was originally from Philadelphia, PA, and was probably discharged in the early summer of 1955. You could also help by locating an association or organization of the guys of the Class of 52-D. My address is above. Thanks, Norm Green (52-E) Keywords:
