RICK BOHN wrote on April 27, 2005 CITY AND STATE: SCOTT CITY MO UNIT: VMC-1 SERVICE OR RELATIONSHIP: FAMILY MEMBER Comments: My father T-SGT Richard Bohn served in VMC-1 in Korea as an electronic countermeasures operator from Feb 1953 to Feb 1954. He then was sent to a recon unit in Opa Locka, Fla. (where I was born) then rejoined VMC-1 in Feb 1956 in Kaneohe, Hawaii until his death in a Skyraider accident in July 1957. I still have his flight log book which documents all the missions he flew in Korea as well as many pictures. I shared some of these with members of the Marine Corps Aviation Reconnaissance Association and would like to hear from anyone who served with my father. Keywords: LONESOME POLECAT
