Comments: Joseph was my husband. He died in 2015. I just found this site and thought I would mention him. We wives who lived in Bofu, drove to Oita Ken and put our husbands on a large boat late at night where they took off to be some of the first military in early 1950 to take part in the Korean war. He was in a mortar company and had a platoon. My menory is that he spent at least a year in Korea - maybe a bit longer. He retired from the military in about 1974. His last duty was ROTC at Purdue and when he retired we remained in Lafayette as he taught there for a few years before we moved to Washington.

Pulling the 155 howsers on those mountain roads wet and slick with the half tracts was quite something. I think the "forgotten war" there was somebody who was not there.

Comments: Frank L. Chandler was a friend of my father's when we lived in Hawaii in the early 1950's. After Frank was wounded, he would come to visit us.
Recently, we saw a famous picture of him taken during the Korean War. He was sitting, comforting another man who had just lost his buddy. The picture was taken by Al Chang, a famous military photographer from Hawaii. The new book where this picture appears is called "Rehearsal for Defeat" by David Halberstam.
We would like to know if there is anyone out there who might know something about Frank.
