Comments: I don't have any information on my father Daniel Belfort, who was in the Army/ Korean war? My brother and I were born in 1956 and 1957, so it had to be shortly before then. I don't even have a picture. He died in a fire in Brooklyn, NY, in the late 80's and he was an auto mechanic. Most of his family resided in Saint Croix Virgin Islands. If there is anyone out there who can provide me with more info I may be able to access his military records and perhaps get a photo to have and show my kids. Thank you!

Comments: Hi my name is Brian. My grandfather fought in the Korean War, but I'm not sure which regiment he was in. I think it could have been the 65th. His name was Angel Lalindez Acevedo. He must have been in his early twenties at that time, if even that. He was from Ciales, Puerto Rico. If anyone has any information, I would love to know. Unfortunately, he died when I was very young in 1991 and I don't know too much about his past. But I would feel better if I at least knew this. I am proud of him and his fighting for our country. God bless.

I found out from some of the remaining Puerto Ricans that remained with us were out of ammunition and were expected to defend with their bayonets. I know they were telling the truth,because we faced the same situation.To me they were heroes.We could have easily won that so-called Police-action if they would have let us do our job and not worry about the Russians and Chinese.

Comments: Hello:
My name is odette Olmeda. My father Herminio Olmeda-Hernandez, and a Korean War Veteran, passed away on December 25th, 2004. We were in the process of getting is memories together, but a sudden and very short hospital stay cut it short. Three years ago I had asked him to record his memories of Korea and his service as a an infantryman with the Puerto Rico 65th Infantry Division. He assured me that he had started recording his memories, but we have not been able to find them. It was my intent to honor my father (while he was still alive) by writing about his life, his humble beginnings as a sugarcane cropper in Puerto Rico in the late 1940s and early 1950s, and how after serving in Korea he returned to the Island and became a teacher and raised the family of which I am very proud of being a member. Right now I am going through a very hard time with the loss of my father. Now, it is more important for me to make sure his life is honored. To that effect, I would like to get in touch with anyone who knew him and may have served with him to share any memories they may have about my father.
You may contact me at (860)568-3847 (ET)
Thank you.

Comments: I am truly looking forward to meeting or exchanging impressions with living relatives, friends, or acquaintances of the late Lt Gen Edward (Ned) Almond. During the research leading to my manuscript for a roman-a-clef novel on the Puerto Rican 65th U.S. Inf Regt in the Korean War, I have come across countless references to Gen Almond. Whilst individual points of view vary in portraying Almond as "a brilliant strategist" or as a deplorable "militarily unintelligent" leader, all seem to agree on the Almond's wretched personality -- bigotry being his greatest flaw. Inasmuch Gen Almond notably displayed this kind of attitude toward black units, I am interested on his view of Puerto Rican soldiers, whom he viewed as no more reliable than his own 92d Inf Div (Negro) from WWII. The late Brig Gen William Harris, commanding officer of the 65th (1949-51), was very polite when addressing the issue of racism in the Army of the day, rather providing the abstracts. I am sure the growing reputation of the 65th during the war would not have gone unnoticed to Gen Almond before he retired in 1952(?). I know that in his retirement years, Gen Almond became a prominent civics activist, giving me the impression of having "redeemed" himself from his wretched reputation as a person. Your input will be appreciated.

Comments: My uncle PFC Manuel Gonzalez Bernard (s/b Bernal) went MIA on 9/18/52 and presumed dead 12/31/53 during the Korean War conflict. He served in B Company, 1st Battalion, 65th Infantry Regiment, 3rd Infantry Division. He was originally from Adjuntas, PR and was 23 years old in 1952. To this day, our family doesn't really know and probably will never know what happened to him. We would like to bring closure to this very terrible loss but the North Koreans will not allow the US to search for the remains of our loved ones in the DMZ, which is where Outpost Kelly was located and probably where my uncle was killed or captured. There are no witnesses and he doesn't appear on the Johnnie Johnson List or in the Missing in Action, Captivity report compiled from returning POWs.
I was just wondering if there's anyone that served with him that could possible shed some light?
I'm in the process of obtaining some military records from the Army.
I have a picture of my uncle with 3 other unidentified soldiers taken in Korea. I would love to find out who they are.
Please email me if you have any information that will help me.

Maybe then people will realize the sacrifices that Puerto Ricans have made for the United States and still making.

Comments: My father-in-law fought with the 65th in Korea. He does not speak much about his service there, but I have reason to believe he was a squad leader and may have earned a medal that was never awarded. Anyone having information please e-mail us at ragc@comcast.net. His nickname (may have been post-war) is Yuyin.

Comments: SIrvio enla segunda guerra mundial, voluntario para Korea, Creo que fue capturado por los alemanes dos veces y escapo, y en korea dos veces mas y volvio a escapar, hay un libro en el que se menciona "de san juan a (...) es un libro blanco de veteranos donde es senalados como uno delos pocos, o quiza el unico que logro escapar tantas veces de ser prisioner de guerra. En puerto rico se le hizo varios homenajes junto con otras personas (CLub de Leones- y e; ejercito)
Despues de la guerra decidio vivir en un campo en ocrozal llamado cuchillas. Por favor si alguien lo conocio, o tiene fotos de el en la guerra o con sus amigos envienmelas, es realmente importante para nosotros sus familiares saber lasanecdotas que nos puedan dar.. gracias y que Dios los bendiga
