Comments: Looking for anyone that remembers getting ambushed
while we were trying to relieve the squad at o.p.??
in summer of 67.I'm just not able to remember who was
there.I do remember being scared. We were in a 3/4
ton and approching the guard post when we got hit.I
think ssg Johnson was our squad leader that day.We
didn't relieve those guys that day.I remember that I
was riding in the truck with rest of our squad with
my rifle over the top the truck cab.I felt what I
will call paint chips hitting my face and then
hearing the automatic fire from the north koreans.We
all jumped out of the truck and took cover.The truck
driver got the 3/4 ton out by driving with his hands
verses his feet while under fire.I also believe that
pfc Schnadt was helping or actually driving the
3/4ton.
How did they clear the land to build that fence and
install personal mines on the north side of the fence
in no time flat? Do you think they used a.g.Orange? I
also have degeneretive disks and a new heart valve.

Comments: Man Who Could See While He Slept

Here is little light hearted moment during the summer
of 1968 that is very memorable. One day it was really
hot and I walked into our hooch and when I got to the
sixth bunk I looked and had to take another look and
I could not believe what I saw. On the upper bunk was
a soldier named SP4 North and he was sound asleep
with a sheet covering his body but his feet were
exposed and on the bottom of each foot he had an
opened eye tattooed on each foot.

Immediately, I rounded up everyone who was in the
hooch at the time and led them to Norths bunk to
take a look. Boy, did everyone get a kick out of
that. Some of the men had to put their hands to their
faces to hold back their laughter . When North woke
up, I could not resist and I asked him why he had two
tattoos of opened eyes on the bottom of his feet.
With a straight face he simpley said he had those
tattoos on the bottom of his feet so he could see
while he slept. I should of known his answer without
even asking.

I guess it is those moments of levity and the
diversity within our ranks that enabled us to endure
those long nights on the DMZ. As you know, there are
all kinds of people in the army, but you could always
depend on SP4 North in the field. He was a good
soldier and if my life were in danger I knew I could
depend on him and every member in our platoon to come
and assist me.

Comments: How Will VA Handle New Agent Orange Presumptions?


Many claims for service connection based on the three
new illnesses were put on hold by the VA until the new
regulations were released. Unfortunately, I anticipate
there may be a slowdown in all VA compensation cases
being decided because the Department of Veterans
Affairs will have to adjudicate all the claims that
were put on hold and still adjudicate other VA
compensation claims causing at least some backlog. I
also anticipate many new claims being filed by veterans
who have these three new presumptive conditions who
previously may not have applied or they had been denied
in the past because these conditions were not on the
presumptive list for Agent Orange. Overall, this is
good news for the veterans who suffer from these
conditions as they can now get the VA compensation they
deserve. If you want to find out more about Agent
Orange and VA benefits you can visit the Veterans
Administration website.

North Koreans ( about 14 as I remember) came across
the DMZ and shot up a village killing a south Korean
policeman. A patrol was sent out and a machine
gunner killed most of the NK's with his M60 MG, the
other NK's committed sucide by holding hand grenades
to their bodies. I also remember being in the field
on alert for Christmas when one of the detonnators
exploded on Freedom Bridge. We also spent a week or
more on ALERT in the field when JFK was assinated. I
remember the weather as being the extreme for all of
the seasons Spring== Mud and Monsoons, summer== Hot

numbers chopped off: looks like it could be 125th or
135th Med, DET, APO 358. If anyone could please help me
locate that Medical Group, whether you were there also,
or worked there, any help you could lend is greatly
appreciated.

Comments: DURING MY TOUR IN SOUTH KOREA..KUNSAN AB I MADE ANY
NUMBER OF TRIPS TO SEOUL, KOREA. ADDITIONALLY I MADE A
NUMBER OF TRIPS ALONG THE DMZ. I THOUGHT IT VERY
STRANGE THAT THERE WAS NOTHING GROWING THERE. WHEN YOU
CONSIDER SOUTH KOREA WAS VERY GREEN AND LOTS OF GROWTH.
AT THAT TIME WHO KNEW ABOUT A/O, I WAS 22 YEARS
OLD..THE LAST THING ON MY MIND. MANY YEARS LATER I
HAVE PROSTRATE AND URINARY TRACT CANCER. I HAD BEERS
WITH NUMBER OF ARMY BUDDIES AND MADE FIRENDS. I AM
LOOKING FOR ONE OF THE FRIENDS WHO WILL REMEMBER THIS
SO I CAN PLACE MYSELF AT THE DMZ AREA. I REMEMBER ALL
THE ARMY GUYS SAYING "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING UP
HERE". NEED HELP...j.burkhart@yahoo.com 909-797-0265.
