Comments: Looking for battalion history, Believe it was origninaly 73 Tk Bn....we had M-46s and in May 1958 got the "new" M-47s IAW with the cease fire stipulation of no new equipment for 5 yrs.. When I got there we were just redesignated Co E 2 MTB 40th Armor from Tk Co 31st Inf Regt...but during the war think it was 73.? . I wear the 31st "bear" DI in most cases, but occasionally the 40th Armor Tyranasaurus Green DI. The 7th iD was my best assignment in 25 yrs. SAlso would like to hear from any "war buddies": from that time 56-58.

Comments: For a study of the casualties incurred by TF Faith (31st Regimental Combat Team) from 27 November 1950-03 December 1950, I would like help in determining individuals unit assignments.
Using the KWP and a 7th Division site I have been able to populate databases with the information related to the units of TF Faith. However these records only provide unit information to the regiment level. In order to make sense of the records as they relate to TF Faith I need to find an individual's Battalion, Company/Battery and Platoon level (if possible) for the units listed below.
I am particularly interested in obtaining copies of contemporary documentation (rosters, morning reports, special orders, reports, letters, etc.) that may aid in these identifications.
Lists of names and unit designations of individuals that you recall would also be of interest.
HQ and HQ Co. 31st Reg.
31st Tank Co.
31st HM Co (firing platoons and HQ)
