He was at Camp Cooke for a while, was a heavy weapons infantryman, was seriously wounded by a missile, but was returned to duty-Far East Command. He got Hemorragic Fever and was sent to Letterman Army Hospital and died June 27, 1952. He served under a Seargeant Jacobi (I'm not sure of the spelling), does anyone know him, too? Please email with any information, my mom was engaged to Floyd before he died. Thank you all very much. Respectfully, Nancy French

Comments: Looking for information on the location of (new) G Company, 3rd Platoon, 160 Regiment, 40th Inf Division. My father, SGT John W. Puhl, was a member of this unit sent to Korea after graduating BMTS (Co G, 61st Inf Regt, 2nd Bt, 8th Div, Fort Jackson SC, Jan-Jun 1952). Currently the only information I have found on picture captions is Bloody Ridge, Heartbreak Ridge, Ko Je Do, and Son Jung Man. I am an active duty Air Force member and will leaving for a tour in South Korea in April. I am hoping to find additional information (hill numbers, geocoordinates, etc.) and stand on the same piece of earth as my father. Anyone with information on this unit or have leads I might follow it will be greatly appreciated. John Puhl, died 14 August 2003 of cancer. He was a combat infantryman and served in three campaigns (according to his ribbons). He was awarded two purple hearts (he didn’t accept them until the 1980s). He fought in three campaigns and does not have any decorations from the Army. I find this odd. Maybe, the generosity of the Army has increased in this area since the 50’s.
