Comments: In my earlier guestbook comment - I erroneously asked about any possible information of my uncle marrying a "Korean" girl. I believe the woman was actually Japanese. Does anyone know - wouldn't he have had to obtain permission from the Army to marry this woman? If so, would that information be anywhere in his military file?
Thanks.

Comments: Sirs, I would be greatful for any information regarding the events of 7/20/50 involving the 3rd Engineer Batt., particularly activity surrounding the participation of Pvt. Hayden Davenport. Pvt Davenport was KIA that day, and I am attempting to research info for an article. I served in the 7th Inf., 3rd Div. in Germany, in the early 60's. During that time I had several leaves in Amsterdam and Copenhagen, an hung out there with a buddy from the Canadian Black Watch Rgt., "Dave" Davenport. Dave told me that his older brother had been KIA in Korea while serving with the 3rd Eng. I noticed Hayden's name on the KIA list for Korea. I feel strongly that the individual soldier's ultimate sacrifice be noted and remembered, so as to put a face on the Korean War and give it meaning for future generations. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you, Paul Kelly

As a combat vetern of Vietnam myself I have always wondered what happened. Now that my mother, Paul's sister, is the last of her family it would mean a great deal to her if we could find out what happened that day. Or, if we could find someone who might remember Paul.

I was the Division Map Distributor on detached

was assigned to the 24th Infantry Division in

when it was in Yamato, Japan. Then they moved the
entire Division to Pusan, Korea. We were
eventually moved up to Yangu Village in Korea.
The cease-fire was signed during the last of my
stay there. I am now 70 years old and imagine the

you're out there please contact me, there just
ain't a lot of time left!
I confess that my memory isn't what it used to be
and I don't remember too many names anymore (I do
remember Kaliel, but not his last name). We had a
Lt. Col. in command of our unit and a Captain and
Master Sargent (name: Sgt. Glass).
Please send an email if you have information or
know anyone in my old unit.

Comments: On behalf of my father, Jack Wright.
During the Korean War my dad, Jack Wright served with the 3rd Engineer Combat. Sometime around 1950 or 51, his troop "adopted" a little boy (about age 6 or 7 maybe) who was orphaned when everyone in his village was killed. He was the only survivor. He was a North Korean child. They were unable to find out the boy's name. He would only let them call him Joe. They called him "Little Joe". He was from somewhere in the southern part of North Korea and Dad only remembers that it was in the mountains. It broke his heart when it was time for them to move on and his commanding officer made him take Little Joe to an orphanage in Pusan, South Korea. Does anyone know of a way to find this boy who would now be in his 50's? Were records kept at these orphanages? Are they accessible? My Dad still thinks of Little Joe often and wishes he could talk to him again.
