Comments: I'm looking for records about my Dad's tour at the border of N and S Korea. His tour ended 1964 approximate month of October or November. His name was Charles Edison Brannon, born in Brickey, Arkansas. He passed away on August 21,2016 and I'd like to know more about his time in the Army. I believe he had something to do with communications, possibly radio man. He told me a story once about equipment being stolen by North Koreans, so they set a trap with a live linear. Perp grabbed it and was electrocuted! Not sure about his position or duty. I hope this helps...

Comments: Hq. AFKN during that period was located at the (Sounds like KyungBuk) girls high school away from downtown Taegu. We were in the Front Quanset Hut, of 4 huts ion a row. The others contained Radio KILROY, the production studios, and personel sleeping quarters. Next to these was a transient personel tent. Behind were three more quanset huts containing the Officers quarters, Supply, and the movie theatre. Next to these was a tent used by the Korean laundry crew. I have pictures of the small base taken from the air. They are on line, however there is an error saying the picture was taken in Pusan. It was Taegu. I would enjoy hearing from anyone stationed at any of the radio stations during that period of time. The stations with the network I can recall were named after persons or things that were wonderers or moved around alot. they include; Kilroy in Taegu, Homesteader in Pusan, Vagabond on Seoul, Comet on the west coast, Meteor at Pohong Dong,Cavalier near Seoul, Gypsy up north, Nomad up north, Mercury, do not remember the location. Colonel Morris Milner was the unit commander at that time. First Sgts. were Sgt Takahashi, Sgt Yourg, and MasterSgt. Sanford. Sgt Sanford passed away last year. He retired as a Vice President of a New York Bank. He lived in Florida and I kept in touch with him via the telephone. I would really like to hear from anybody assigned to AFKN In 1954 and 1955. Best Regards to All.
