Comments: I am looking for Clyde Baker. That is all the info I have on him at this time. My dad hasn't seen him in over 50 years, and would like someday to know what ever happened to him. I think he was originally from Louisianna, but that is all I have to go on. I don't remember the air force unit but will try to find out.
Dad is 75 yrs old and Clyde baker would be about the same age (+/-)
I have a very hard to recognize picture of both men taken from a frame out of the Motion Picture "Strategic Air Command" which was filmed on location at Carswell at that time.
Please contact starfishdex@hotmail.com, if you have any information on this person. If I think you are the clyde Baker I am looking for, or if I think you know the right person, I would love to arrange a re-union meeting.

Comments: of the fearless five we shared a tent, bartered malt, played thousands of canasta games, salvaged radios from wrecks, at Teagu Cpl Art Weart lighted the airport and provided it's tactical phones with operators from the town before going back to Pohang. One time four F-80's were lost above the cloud layer and using Marine DF managed to land 3 (the fourth out of gas was lost but pilot bailed out OK). Art enabled a B-25 to return to Japan by fixing it's VHF radio - and helped refuel other B-25's by adding gas to tanks from 5 gal jerry cans.
Prior to leaving Hamhung Cpl Weart had to destroy a C-46 with China markings that had a gear up landing one night and was blocking the only runway - (being used to evacuate round the clock flights). Damn hard - used a Marine tank to haul it off and then mash it to scrap. Could not make it burn - tried mag, gas, flares, nothing. Got got a marine tank to mash it up. worked fine. The tankers thought so too.
