Comments: I am looking for anyone who remembers the poster that where displayed about the Post with the message; MORE SWEAT AND LESS BLOOD. It was about April 1951 and I was sent to the hospital with a fever of 106 where they did a spinal tap on me and Sunday morning the doctor told me he had saved my life.
I tried since 1952 to obtain my records and was told they had none until 2004 when they sent me partial records. Those records included the Company report which stated I was sent to the hospital for Streptococcic sore throat which never happened. This is a false report. They do NOT give a spinal tap for Strep throat.
My deceased older brother was in the same unit with me and he gave them a statement backing my claim but they refuse to change the records.
Keywords: The Company Commander was Lt C. G. Gibson and the Sargent Bogusz was my unit leader.

I do know that he was a Green Beret and I believe he was a medic. His beret has a date of 1955 on the manufacturer's label. I don't believe he served over seas. I think he was stationed in North Carolina or Georgia
He was from Downey California and graduated from Montebello High School.
Any information about where he trained from boot camp, tech training, and SpecOps and which units he may have served with and when, would be appreciated. I have a photo available if needed.

Is there anyplace online that I could get photos of the base and nearby homes during that period? Unfortunately, I don't remember too much about living there because of my age but I have been told that I was the hit of the area with the Japanese because of my blond hair and blue eyes. I would love to hear from anyone that was there during that time and might have known my father Richard Dickinson and my mother Imogene Dickinson.

Comments: Looking for anyone that may have known my brother Jack Zimmerman "Slim" Graham. He was inducted in November 1950 from Lawrence County Alabama. He was in Korea in the Summer of 1951, (was awarded a Bronze Star on Korean Svc Medal DAGO 55 26 Jul 51). His place of separation was from 101th Abn Div and Camp Breckinridge Ky on 20 August 1952. Until I saw his service record I was under the impression that he served in Co. B, 2nd Chemical Mortar Battalion IX Corps.
