Comments: Most of 2nd RR Sq. went TDY to fooosa just weeks
after arriving
at Kadena AB, Okinawa in August/ September 1958.
Terminals were
set up in Taipai, and Kouisuing, the southern port
of fooosa,
with sites every 30 miles or so. During the next
couple of
months 8 Mig 17's were suppose to have been shot
down using our
ANTRC-24 Louisiana Circuit, by Chinese Nationaist
F-86 jets. I
had a hard time believing it even then. The US Air
Force was
allowing Sidewinder heat seeking air to airs to be
first used in
combat by another Air Force? Now, I stumble on to
information,
on the internet,that we even had Starfighters even
pics of the
104's being unloaded, with wings off, from C-
124's,secretly in
the country. Also 17 Migs, Not 8 were shot down
using just 17
Sidewinders. The U S Air Force was pulling the
triggers on the
Sidewinders. Ski and I had to go back to Okinawa
for new orders.
We flew from Kouisuing in a brown C-46, belonging
to the NCAF.
We first had to take some Chinese soldiers out to
an island near
Communist China. They had wives, kids and their
GOATS and a box of
chickens on the plane with us.. We flew in clouds
without seeing
the water, until just before landing we went to a
lower altitude
to land. The only thing to be seen was the landing
strip, not
any buildings. So we landed and the soldiers,
families, goats and
chickens hurried off and we turned around and took
off back into
the clouds till just before we landed at Tai-Chung
AB. Anybody
ever have an experience like that? We had a site
somewhere on an
island toward Mainland China, and the site crew
had to get there
on a PT boat. I used to have a picture of a 2nd RR
guy wearing a
helmet on their way back from a supply run. One of
those wide
helmets used for radio earphones. In late 1959 we
moved 5th Comm
Grp Headquarters and 2nd RR Sqdn to Clark Field
AB, PI.

and a pet

names. Trying to
remember things to jog some pals memory from long

Comments: I was OIC and turned the site over to Co "C" EUSA Long Line Signal BN out of Daegu end of May 1955. On 14 Oct 2010, throgh cortesy of 36th Sig MN (Daegu) and 501st Sig Co at Camp Humphreys, I visited the site with the staff of both Army outfits. The only artifact remaining from 1955 is the concrete stairway that goes from the lower vehicle parking area to top site where the Comm Quonset and Kit/Mess Hall sat. The site and mountain are now so overgrown with tress and underbrush that it is impossible to view anything below site. The access road is now PAVED up to a large CONCRETE chopper pad at the double gated security fence and a SMOOTH well graded gravel road continues up to the old vehicle parking area. Anyone interested, I have 22-photos taken by the 36th and
Trip Report, may request same from me by email and you can pull up the 36th Face Book page with their story of on the visit..go to:

He is still healthy and with his wits about him (Thank God) and asked me to help find out more about the 2nd RR and the 5th Comm. He tells me at the time he was only 19 and very wet behind the ears (See why I love him?) and like most, in a fog so he did not learn a lot about where he was. Any information about the units would be great. If you know him, Austin F. Loftus, I will pass on the information to him.

Recall bombings in Seoul and wandering arnd the countryside with other APs who had no trouble getting vehicles from motorpool or stealing one from higher hqs. Recall doing guard duty on trains that ran from Pusan to Taegu and then to Seoul. Recall escorting equipment from Seoul to site in Taegue when one of their troops went nuts and slaughtered some comrades there. Stayed at Seoul hqs until end of June then went to Paris site near Chonan. Paris was flight hqs for sites paris, Rickey and Panama (or Manila?).
