Comments: I have found several pictures of the 739, but no names on the back. One uniform appears to have the name foo and another appears to have the name Keves, although both are difficult to read. I would like to send these pictures to someone who can possible identify the men in th pictures. The year appears to be 1954.

Comments: I often wonder what became of thos guys.
Also, while I was there (about 30 miles from
Osan-ni), we started an orphanage with
clothes that our girlfriends in the States sent
us. It was called the Anchoong Orprhanage,
and I have often wondered what became of it.
And information anyone can supply in this
regard will be appreciated.
