Comments: Desperately looking for info regarding the 65th Inf Reg't in the 1940's. I have gathered enough info on the regiment's participation in the war; but little I know about the years between WWII and Korea. I'm looking specifically for company distribution (I understand some units were stationed at Fort Brooke, Camp Losey, and Henry Barracks); how was a typical day of work; training exercises and sites; what did a new recruit experience when joining the regiment. Were there recruiting stations spread about the island, or would-be soldiers had to travel to San Juan in order to get recruited? Was there only the USS Marine Lynx or were there really more than one ship transporting the Borinqueneers to Korea? This and/or any additional info would be greatly appreciated. May reply in Spanish or English.

Comments: Was unaware of this site until I read a newspaper article extolling the contributions of the 65th Regiment. From my recollections, the claims made in that article are highly inaccurate; however that is another matter. I am simply grateful that this site exists and sparked me to search memories I have not thought about for many years.
Keywords: Nickname: Doc Stock. Left Seattle aboard the Gen's. R. L. Howze, Dec. 1952 for Japan/Korea via Camp Drake and USS Marine Serpent to Inchon. Served thru truce and late into 1953. Areas encountered during time in Korea include arrival at Inchon, then to Chunchon by truck in the middle of the night (with lots of artillery sounds and flashes to light up the sky). Later to Hwachon, Tokoli Ri, Koje Do (to guard Prisoners of war), Chipori, Inje, Kumwha, Chorwon, Seoul and Pusan.
Have many pictures of friends made during that time and often wonder what became of them.

There is no truth to Mr. Cruz remarks.
At no time in the report or the newspapers articles on the 65th was there any mention of the "65th being used as "cannon fodder" while the rest of the 3rd Division let Puerto Rican-Americans take casualties, etc.
It appears Mr. Cruz thinks a report by the Army's Center of Military History, which is the foundation for the newspapers articles, was written by a pseudo-historian. I hardly think so. The Center is a highly respected government agency.
Anyone interested in reading the report, including Mr Cruz, can access the report on www.prari.org

I think of my fallen buddys quite often. Two were especially close to me ,and both were killed in action on the same day. One was named Antonio Nogerra we called him "cookie",and the other was Frankie, he was from Guam. He used to Play my guitar left handed. He taught me a Japanese army song that he learned from the Japanese during WW2 when they occupied Guam. Cookie taught me to play the National anthem of Puerto Rico onthe guitar. and finally my company comander Lt Cavasos I shall never forget him. Does anyone remember me? I'm the guy that played the guitar and got a little telescope for my 22nd birthday in June, and spotted a Chinese observer in a cave across that valley we were overlooking.

To save go to http://www.ngb.dtic.mil (national guard website), under the "Image Collection" click "Heritage Series". The Borinqueneers photo is in the middle. You can click to view a larger picture along with the text of the story. If you right click the image, you can "save picture as" then open it in paint or whatever photo software you may have.
