Assigned 1st Commando/Raider Unit 24th Inf. Div. South Korea APO 977 San Francisco, Calif.
Proj: FEA Destination classified APO 977 San Francisco, Calif. The order then goes on to instruct my father to report NLT 0800 hrs 9 June 1950 to the Commander of the 1st Com/Rad Unit at pier 5 in the San Francisco Harbor. Other general instructions follow concerning travel and the issuance of full combat gear aboard his vessel. Is there anyone out there that knows about this unit, the vessel they traveled on or anything concerning my father during the war? Thank you all for your service to our country.
