Looking for anyone who served in U.S. Army, Company G, 2nd Battalion, 24th
Infantry Regiment, 25th Infantry Division in Korean War with SFC Milton
Wesley Bailey who helped to save his unit under very heavy enemy Chinese
fire near the DMZ on July 17, 1951. His remains have still not been
recovered. He is MIA, last seen on a North Korean mountain ridge holding
off enemy fire so his unit could retreat. He has a living comrade who was
the point man that day and has provided an accounting (and written and
dedicated a book to Bailey) of this incident.

Milton Wesley Bailey ... anyone have any information to help with our
research?
