RICHARD H. Sharp wrote on 2002-07-31 08:59:37.0

Comments: I am seeking information on the 7th RCT. I was assigned to Hq/Hq 1st Marine Division at Hungnam. Word was spread that volunteers were needed up north. I volunteered and was reassigned to the force at Hagaru.I was a PFC at the time with 2 1/2 years in the Corps.

I left for Hagaru on the 24th of November via truck convoy. I have always thought that we were still Hq/Hq personnel. I was an ammo humper on light 30 machine guns. My MOS at the time was 0331.

While reading "Breakout", and other books on Chosin, I found it interesting that others in my group were listed as 7th RCT. Major Fredrick Simpson, Lt. Charles Sullivan, M/Sgt McClung, and others. Since I was a PFC we were not well informed. Can anyone reading this set me straight.

Thanks and Semper Fi.
