Comments: I arrived at the 145th bn on Jan 11, 1954. I was lucky in that the fighting had ended while I was in basic. Very cold, most of the battery lived in tents but the bunkers were still there. The guns were still dug in with bunkers along side for the crews. I trained with the survey crew for a month then joined the FDC section. My chief of section was Roy C. Hall from Mich. The bc was Lt Manley. Both had been ther quite a while. In spring most of the bunkers were pushed down and leveled. The gun bunkers and the FDC bunker remained. The mess hall bunker was turned into a beer hall with our own juke box and a pool table. HQ was across the river. Charlie battery was near us but they moved baker into the next valley, to the west I think. The following November we turned our area and our equip over to the Koreans and moved to camp Drake, outside of Tokyo. We were given long toms on tracks. That winter we spent some time at a marine camp and artillery range up on Mt Fuji. I went home in May.
