Comments: I was there for the fire that burned down the hospital. I did not work in the supply warehouse so don't know about any agent orange. I have a lot of slides somewhere of the hospital after the fire. I think it was in 1971 or early 72. I'm sure there was no spraying going on then. So my gut feeling is there was no agent orange at the depot. I don't know the defoliant that was used when the war was on, but my guess it was not agent orange. That was a product of Vietnam.

Keywords: Agent orange, hospital fire.

Comments: I've never looked back after being discharged from the Army in 1965 but had a little time on my hand this morning and googled Ascom 6th Med Depot and was surprised to read various posts.
I was assigned in the Loose Issue section which was not a bad duty compared to the guys that had to work in the cold or hot warehouses. A couple of names popped up in my mine that was stationed there with me ie. Willie Parker of Greenville SC or maybe NC (?). Shelly, B, Miller, Dubois and Lowe. There was one in particular that filled the heaters during the winter months with Diesel named Fry. Afterwards I was stationed at Ft Benning, Ga at Hospital Det, Martin Army Hospital.

Comments: I am looking for anyone that might have served with my dad. It would have been right around 1951, or 1952 I believe. I would love to talk to someone that might have served with him, just to know him a bit better than I did before he died. Thank you. I have a picture of him standing by one of the barracks on crutches, not sure what happened to his leg/foot. Never heard any stories growing up.

Comments: Looking for info re: when and where my Dad served - 6th Army Medical Depot APO 301. He was issued Korean Service Medal w/3 bronze stars. He was recalled 10-25-50 at Ft. Campbell, KY as a Cpl. Rec'd rank of Sgt(T) 4-22-51.

He may have been a POW for six months and led an escape of 12 men. My Mother did not receive any mail from him for six months but he did not speak of his time in Korea until his 2nd brain tumor which led to his eventual death.

If you knew him or anything about his outfit, please contact me to help me understand and know what my Dad went thru in Korea.
Thanks for serving in the military. Any info will be greatly appreciated by his family.
