I don't know if this is the proper place to start or not - but I'm not 
sure where else to go. I got a call from my Dad yesterday asking for 
help finding a Japanese friend. He was in the 25th Infantry Division, 
725 Ordnance stationed outside of Osaka from 1949 until 1951 when he 
was sent to Korea. His friend's name is Yuko Arima. He can not recall 
the name of the village he was stationed in and we've been told if he 
can remember the address there is a good chance we can find her. Any 
help would be greatly appreciated.

I would like to hear from any one of the men who were in the first
detachment on mount Fuji when the war started. I would like to find my
friend Yuko Arima (Judy) if posible.

The 25'th Division was in Japan When I arrived. I got to Japan in Jan.
of 1949. The 725 Ord. was in two detachments. 

I was on the slopes of Mt. Fuji when the war started. We were on
manuvers and had been there for about a month. I belive it was on a
Sunday when we got the news about the invasion of South Korea.

We loaded on a train and 10 days later we were in Korea. I was there a
year and 3 days. That was about a year too long. If you know of any way
I can search for Yuko please let me know.

I was in the instrament repair section. Our shop truck was #69. Some of
the guys in the section were Collins, Ortiz, Hood and Davis.

Any information would be great! If you can help me, call me any time
collect! 
Thanks,

Allen
