A couple months later, I was transfered to H and S Company which was just across the valley. There, I was assigned to being a searchlight operator in the TACP unit. ( tactical air control party )We had 3 searchlight operators ( one for each company in the Bn.)There were also 4 radio operators in TACP.We had a Marine Fighter Pilot as our group commander.They took turns rotating into our group every 4 months.The Marines perfected ' close air -to -ground support' We were trained to light up targets for the Marine pilots while the radio operators called in air strikes. I arrived in Korea just after the war stopped so I never did more than keep up on my training but others before me used those lights to light up the hills when the enemy attacked their positions. I would like to hear from anyone who was there around that time. Korea was the first time in the Marine Corps history that they used searchlights like this. Anyone who was associated with TACP, please contact me as it would be interesting to hear from you.

HOWARD BRITT wrote on August 28, 2009 CITY AND STATE: UNIT: SERVICE OR RELATIONSHIP: FAMILY MEMBER Comments: Frank Britt, my father, recently died. I have old Korea photographs - which include photos of Marines in and around Koto-Ri, images of the breakout convoys, and the Chosin Resevoir. If you are interested please let me know. It would be great if these are passed on to other family members. I have scanned these into a pdf file and several jpg's. Dad was a Corpsman serving in Charlie Company of the 7th Regiment. He landed at Inchon, and later on the east cost of Korea for the drive to Chosin. Dad was there when the Chinese attacked in early November. Dad was wounded in combat on November 11 in the hills above Koto-ri. I do not know how he got some of these photos since they were taken after he was evacuated. The breakout came later that month. I also have a photograph of his graduating class for Hospitalmen, April, 1948 as well. As many here have said, veterans of combat don't speak of their experiences. However, towards the end of Dad's life he collected a whole series of books on the Korean War which I am reading now. Reading these, having seen my Dad's bronze star and Purple Heart, his wound, makes me a very proud son, a humble and grateful American. God bless all of you who served in Korea and might read this!

ONTIVEROS UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS for service as set forth in the following CITATION: "For meritorious achievement in connection with operations against the enemy in KOREA while serving with a Marine infantry company from 7 May 1951 to 30 March 1952. Serving as a fire team leader, Corporal ONTIVEROS displayed outstanding courage, initiative and devotion to duty. On one occasion when seriously wounded during an attack on heavily defended enemy positions, he refused evacuation and continued to designate targets and direct the advance of his fire team until forced to be evacuated. On 17 January 1952 when his company came under a savage attack by a reinforced enemy squad, he left the cover of his bunker, exposing himself with complete disregard for personal safety to intense enemy fire. This action, causing many enemy casualties, assisted in the final repulsing of the attack. Corporal ONTIVEROS' heroism and fortitude throughout were in keeping with the highest traditions of the United States Naval Service." Corporal ONTIVEROS is authorized to wear the Combat "V". /s/ J.T.
