Comments: I was in Korea the last time in 65to 66. I was originally at Camp Red Cloud in G1.
After 6 months or so I kind of got into it with one of the Ltc and was told to find a
home having been an MP for years I went down the road to the Kimchi Commanches(55th)
where I finished my tour plus 1 add month do to the build up in Vietnam. I have a bound
book that was made up of all personnel's pictures that were with the unit at the time
(like a hight school year book). I left there in May 66.

Comments: I am looking for vets who served at Camp Rose Korea during the time period of 1969-1970. I am trying to corroborate several stressors for a vet who is seeking his compensation for PTSD. I am also interested in knowing more about the firefights that took place there and whether you guys were under direct attack. The vet's name is Thomas Vana - he was an Army medic. Other men he served with are: Donald Chaney, Ronnie Moon, Cecil Lang, and Joseph Pirog. Thank you!!!

Comments: Hello,
My name is Ismael Lopez and I would like to reconnect with my
buddies from Korea and touch bases. I hope they are all doing fine. I
was station in Korea during 1967-1968.
I was in the 1st Batallion, 38th Infantry, Company B, 2nd Infantry
Division. I was an Imjin Scout, I earned my scout insignia at CC3.
I was stationed at Middle Camp Custer ( I even have a sign that reads,
"Mission Safety. Safety wins more than Luck. 1st Batallion, 38th
Infantry, 2nd Infantry Division, Middle Camp Custer"
We used would go on Hunter-Killer partrol, also Night Ambush and
also used to stay the nights in the fox hole at the barrier. We also
spent nights at the observation point. We used to hear the North
Korean speakers all night long!
After 6 months I was transfered, to the 2nd MP unit.
I remember some of my friends were Bob Watson, Donnie M. Baker,
Marrero (who was transfered from Vietnam due to injury, I think he was
cuban and from New York) we were good friends and I have several
pictures of them.
I have several pictures of my old buddies and Korea and would very
much like to reconnect with anyone who may have been there at this
time or who remembers me.
Hope to see or hear from someone soon. Bye.
You can email me at partytimepartysupplies@yahoo.com -- If you can
respond please mention that this is in regards to Korea in the subject
line so that I know who it is and do not accidentally miss the email.
Look forward to hearing from someone soon.

Comments: I served in Korea late 1962 - 1963 at HQ S3 taking reports from the DMZ for compilation to the Colonel in the morning.
I worked 8 hours on and 24 hours off until I left Korea for my old outfit at Ft. Campbell, Kentucky home of the 101st Airborne Div.
The notable memories that I have of my tour in Korea was how cold it had gotten in the winter, and the ambush at 1 yankee and 2 Zulu that killed 2 of our guys and wounded one other. We had flushed hills during the day (before I was assigned to HQ from Company A )and had stakeout at night, until the North Korean agents were captured and/or killed way south of our positions towards Seoul. The whole tour was a FOG to me. But, I do remember Robert F. Kennedy visiting our location to be briefed by 9th Cav next door to us. ( Lucky bastards)
I was the one who told the North Koreans about the assasination of John F. Kennedy, when I called it to the guys out in the Zone.
We all knew they were listening in on our calls,and we thought it would be kind of interesting to speculate just what the North Koreans would tell their guys that would differ from our report.
We were stationed across the Imjim River, and I can remember the fragrance of the fertilizer used in the spring for their rice paddies as we neared Chang Pari at the end of the bridge. (Hooooo-weeeee!)
Munsan-Ni was a nice little town compared to Chang Pari, But it was Chang Pari that gave me fond memories.
Oh,well..here it is 2010, and from some of the pictures I saw of Chang Pari, it has certainly changed. Using Google earth, I could just barely recognize the town, had it not been for the bridge.
Well, thats all for now, I wish I could remember all the people I worked with that year, and I want to say I am sorry for anything that may have made them angry with me. I was young, so I did make my share of errors.

Comments: I do remember a standing order that nothing around the camp was to grow tall enough for a man to hide behind. If agent orange was available, I'm sure that's what was used. I now have heart problems, prostrate problems, an enlarged thyroid and muscle pain. The VA says that some of these can be from agent orange. I've filled out the paper work and waiting for results. You can get your drugs from VA for $8 each.
