It was activated in Jan 1952 for 2 years, and was stationed at Camp Polk, LA. Almost all the members of the 148th were sent as individual replacements to Korea. We are putting together a museum at HHC 1/148th INF, Ohio National Guard armory in Lima, OH. The 148th is the only remaining infantry battalion in the state.

From the pictures they appear to be from the middle/late 1950's but could be even a little later. The little girl is dressed in traditional oriental dress/with headpiece. The pictures were emailed to me and are of poor quality. Albert was b. 17Dec1934 Houston, Texas and d. 1998 Texas

They came to schools such as: Automotive Maintenance, Cooks and Bakers, Electrical Lineman, Signal Corps, Motion Picture Projection, Corps of Engineers, etc. I was in charge of the Training Aids Section where indigenous draftsmen, artists, sign painters, carpenters, metalsmiths, etc. designed and produced the various training aids for these school classrooms. Soon after Korean War began, Japanese recruits replaced American students and became part of the JNPR. (Japanese National Police Reserve) I was in the Headquarters and Service Company most of the time I was at Eta Jima. I was returned to Camp Breckenridge, KY and discharged 9/22/51.

He never left the states and does not seem to have been in any particular unit. There is no mention of any on his form. The question that we are asking is what he did in the service?

Comments: I am looking for any information about my brother, Maurice Eugene Watson, ID: US-55-260-773. In 1952, he was stationed at Camp Pickett Virginia, Company B 3rd Medical Training Battalion 2131 st. Area Service Unit M.R.T.C. He served in Korea, and was wounded there also. I would like to know what area of Korea he served in and what year he was there. He is now deceased. I have listed a few names from a picture taken at Camp Pickett, VA. Group Picture Names: George H. Dettmer, William A Berlew, Ralph J. Kaufman, Richard W. Uher, Burl Branham, Hubert J. Hightower, David S. Hayes, Julian O. Martinez, Calvin Mitchell, James L. Strong, Frank DeLeon, Richard L. Miller, Phillip C. Grippi, Robert L. Woods, Melvin E. Parde, and Arnold L. Johnson. I would like to thank anyone in advance for any help you might be able to offer me. It would be much appreciated.
