Yes I saw Marilyn Monroe and she put on a good show for
all of us GIs. I was with the 40th IDs 143rd field arty Hq
and Hq battery. A few years ago my wife saw a picture in a
catalog of her entertaing the troops in the year 1954 and
she ordered it for me. It showed her on stage and lot of
troops in the back ground I am proud of that picture and my
time with my unit. Charles

I was an ARMY-AFKN broadcast station engineer, and in Feb.
1954 an announcer, whose name might have been Ross Richie,
and I flew up to interview Marilyn Monroe. We got about a
half hour with her in her private quarters. Ross did the
interview and I did the recording and staring. The
interview was later edited and distributed to the AFKN
network for broadcast. She was very nice.

To Nyal Skilling,

Are you talking about my uncle Col. Vincent L. (Moe) Boylan? I tried to send you an e-mail but it bounced. I am researching Col. Boylan's career for a family history and I would like to connect with you.

I did see and talk with Marillyn . Had my picture taken with her and my buddies. She was under my care for two days in Feb 54 along with the MP's . I was with the Hdq Co of the 45th Inf Div . I will not forget her and still have her picture. Also was with Terry Moore but that was at another time. I have a picture of Terry Moore.

I didn't see her, but my Dad did. He was in Company H 136th INF. REG. Somehow he managed to get her to autograph the picture.

Yes I saw Marilyn perform in Korea With a show that Jack Benny show. It was in the Summer month of 1951 Can't remember which one. We were up on the Hans river at the
time. The Officer that was in charge came out and told
everyone to not whistle or make wolf calls. She appeared
on stage and told everybody to whistle and hollow all
they wanted, that it made her feel good.
