My fathers name is Herschel (BUD) Shigley. He was a frogman,
UDT. He was in Korea as well as Vietnam. He told me
about "Operation Fishnet" took place in Korea 1952. He would
swim out with his team 3, I think, and cut the fishing nets
and drag them out to sea. This was to interfere with their
food supply. So interesting!
He later served in the coast guard in charge of Point
Hueneme Lighthouse station.
Anyone out there remember him please write me back.
BTW Dad is living in AZ and doing fine.

Hi, I can say for sure of my dad knew your dad. But my dad's name is Charles DeGuia. Served between 1950-54, and did fight in Pusan. He's still alive and doing well. Living in Northern California. Good luck on your search... I'm just starting. Any links/helps would be appreciated.
