Comments: I was 19 years old at the time. I don't really remember any of the names of my comrades. The only name I remember was a Lt. Fowler. Then when I went to headquarters Co to drive for the Field director, I believe his name was Pendleton. He rated a Sgt. as an assistant. I am 75 years old now and I wonder if there is anyone out there who remembers. I was in the regiment until Dec 1953, then I was rotated home, We came home on the MSTS GENERAL HOWZE. Would love to hear from anyone who was there. Or a relative of anyone seeking any info.

Keywords: I served in F-2-7 Dec1952 to around Feb 1953 I was on Hill 229 I believe. Then was transfered to Headquarter Co. as a driver for the Red Cross field director

Comments: my brother has been traumatized since the korean war he is 73 years old and is not able to speak about the war.he has suffered recurring frost bite from that time and cannnot articulate the suffering he went through, as is true of many vets of the forgotten war. i considr him a hero of that war, though he would not think of himself as one,of many, of those who fought in that cold, harsh place. His sacrifice and those of the many who fought there should be charisted and never forgotten!

Keywords: 1st div 7th reg my brother served during the chosin resavior campaign in 1950 he may have won a navy cross but he does not speak of it. i believe he was sited for retreiving the bodies of fellow marines during action around 14 dec 1950 any info would be of great help
