Looking for Brothers friends! H/3/5

Comments: USS PickaWay APA222 at San Deigo, California departed July 14,1950 arrived in Pusan, Korea on August 3rd, 1950. Al was shot in the arm and leg and then was shipped to Fukuoka Japan on August 16th on the USNS Mueller. He was recovering in the hospital but then was sent back to Korea to fight. The ship that brought him back to Korea was USS OKANOGAN PA220 at Kobe Japan. He arrived in Inchon, Korea. He was killed Septemeber 24, 1950, I believe it was close to Inchon Korea, Fighting on Hill 66-222. I am his sister. We were seperated at birth so I only just now after 50 years am finding out information on him. I would like to know as much a possiable. I didn't find out about my brother until 1955, 5 years after he had already been killed. Any information on my brother, what he was like, and how he was killed would be greatly apperciated. From what information I have found, I would also like to know about the hills and were they located and what town or city they were in. He was buried in the 1rst Marine Division Cemetery, Inchon, Korea. He was buried next to Edward Harold Whittaker Sgt.,and William Dorwood Raynor Pfc. The person that reported the burial was Lucuis Porter, TSgt. USMC. Thank you very much! God Bless you all.

Comments: My father, Richard (Dick)Pelley and I publish the H-3-5 Marinenewsletter which "Rats", Jim Ratliffe had originally began. Rats was responsible for finding so many H-3-5ers and reuniting them, some of which I had the pleasure of meeting at the first reunion my Dad and I attended several years ago. This web site was very instrumental in my search for some of my fathers buddies from some 50 odd years ago. I was even able to locate his LT. If there are any H-3-5ers out there still looking to make a connection or find someone who knew your loved one, please email me and we will post the persons name etc. in our newsletter (published 3-4 times a year). We also have access to some of the rosters which may be helpful. Please include as much info as you can (ie. middle initial, city/state of last known residence, year, battles & hill numbers etc). I hope you all find what you're looking for.

It Happened One Sunday

One Sunday morning, sometime I the spring of 1950, about a dozen of us guys were lying around I the barracks at Camp Pendleton. How Company had returned from being stationed in Guam in February and after a typhoon had tried to blow us away. We were given a thirty day leave on a rotation basis, and about a third of the Platoon was on leave at this given time.

I imagine the only reason some of us were in the barracks that Sunday is that some few had laundry to do and the rest of us were probably broke. A Marine base on Sunday seems almost deserted. Most on liberty.

I remember it was sometime after breakfast and before we went to lunch, the squad bay burst open and in walks the C.O., Capt. Fagan. He walked about a third of the way through the bay, stopped, turned around facing the way he had come in, did a quick count and said, “You nine men, get your web gear, your helmet liners, and your rifles off the rack. Make sure you have your dungarees on and fall out in front of the barracks.”

I was one of the nine; shocked thoughts running through our minds but needless to say, we jumped to. In less time than it takes to tell, we had fallen out and fallen in at the front of the barracks. The Captain walked in front of us, stopping and giving each of us two clips of ammo for our rifles. His only orders were—“Lock and load when I tell you and load aboard that covered 6x6.” The truck and driver were parked in the area in front of the barracks.

We climbed aboard and off we went with not the slightest idea where we were going or what we were going to do. Out the back gate, into Oceanside, left onto highway 101, traveling south. I think we must have suggested a hundred things of what was going on, from the sublime to the ridiculous, but as it turned out we were not even close with our speculations.

After about an hour we were in San Diego. Hey! Must be something going on at the MCRD. Nope! We just stayed on the highway and right through San Diego still headed south. After a little while one of the guys said, “We’re coming into T-Town” (Tijuana). All we could think or say—“What the hell!”

We did not stop at the border, just kept on and after a few minutes we did come to a stop. One of the fellows who was sitting in the back next to the tailgate could see a little, and he said, “We’re stopped in front of the jail.”

The Captain came to the back of the truck and said—“Lock and load and I want three of you to line up on the steps on the right, and three of you line up on the same steps on the left and don’t let anyone come in until we come back and the other three of you come with me.” Here we were, six Marines standing guard in Tijuana, Mexico, scared S……. By that time we had figured that the Captain was there to get someone. Sure enough, in five or ten minutes, seemed forever to us six standing outside, out they came, the four that had gone in and two more.

Back in the 6x6 and off we go, through the border gate, back through San Diego and all the way back to Pendleton and our barracks without once stopping in between.

Over the years, I had thought about that incident many times. Today I imagine it would create an international incident and would be in all the newspapers.

After forty years and not seeing anyone from How Company, details were forgotten and I even forgot the names of the two fellows we got out of jail. When I told the story at our first reunion in Wichita, Kansas in 1993, I immediately heard—“Rat’s. You are pulling our leg.” Thank goodness, as soon as I had finished the story one of the fellows sitting there said, “Rat’s, you know who you got out of jail?” I said, “No.” He said, “It was me and Downing.” That was H-3-5 George Kaczmarek and Downing was H-3-5 Bob Downing—and “That’s the rest of the story.”

Attached to? Wounded Bunker Hill

Comments: I am hoping against all odds here that someone would remember an older Gunny Sgt. Sgt. Elgie H. Wells old retread from WWII and alot older than most of the young guys there. He was one of Col. Currins Raiders in the Solomons and re-enlisted in 1948. He came to Korea in Feb 8,1952 aboard the USS General Weigel. He was wounded the 14 of Aug 1952 so I'm thinking Bunker Hill. I'd like to think someone out there remembers an older 6'2" mean Marine. Maybe he was attached to the 1st Reg. but the papers of his Purple Heart say he was with the 3rd battalion 5th Marines. I just can't find where he was in any battle engagements . Please help if you can. Personell records just stop at 1950 and so I'm left to search on my own for his History with theUSMC for 191/2 years. Thank each of you Korean Vets that read this. What a legacy you have left us all!!

If the story in the Jonesboro clipping is correct, then R. J. deserves at least one medal.

He arrived in Korea April 1951' He was promoted to sergeant upon arrival and commanded the 1st division 11th regiment 1st Battalion Baker Battery (Gun #4?) and served till the truce talks stalemate July 1952'. Its recently come to my attention He may have fired in support of E-2-5 and or G-3-5. He recieved 6 medals altogether not/inc the new unissued Rok medal. He has yet to receive it. He is interested in any serious contacts from baker battery and any forward observers he might have encountered. He's sad the names are gone from memory; Even then, most were nicknames never to be used again off the Peninsula. I've begun documenting his divisions movements during his service with what limited resources I can get. Any Information or Resources would be greatly appreciated and reciprocal if wanted. I've got a couple maps off the web and some random references to the Marines 11th Artillery in some actual diary like info and military docs.
