Comments: I enlisted in the 40th Div in 1948 We were activated on Sept 1,1950 to prepare to go to Korea. We spent several months at Camp Cook, Ca (now known as Vandenberg Air Base). We were then transported by Naval Ship to Japan for pre-combat training. My unit, Hq and Hq and Sv Co 578th Combat Eng, was stationed south of Sendi at an Installation called Matsushima next to the village of Yamoto. We did all of our training in the northern part of Japan. We left Japan for Korea on or about September 1951, I and several others from the battalion left in July as a advance party. We landed at Enchon, and were transported by truck north of the 38th parallel to Kumsong Valley. I left Korea in June 1952 and was released from active duty in July 1952.
