Comments: I was talking to John Silkwood today and we mentioned some of the guys we were with in Korea,
however we both come to the conclusion that after
50 yrs. we both are vague in our memories. We
would like to obtain a roster of all of the men
in our company. The problem is, we don't know
where to go to get this info and would like any
help you can give us. I spoke to the people at
the 40th museum and they had nothing.
Keywords: Kumwha valley area. My buddies were John Silkwood,

One of those individuals is a CPT Shaugnessy and a friend of his originally from Wisconson who was in the 224th, a SGT John Clancy.
My father had referenced the Kumwha Valley, Heartbreak Ridge and the Punchbowl as well.
I am a Master Chief Petty Officer in the Navy, (E-9), active duty, and would sincerely appreciate any information regarding my father from this era of his life. Thank you for your time and service.
