The 307th BW moved without personnel or equipment to Kadena AB, Okinawa, on February 10, 1951, and absorbed the resources of the 307th BG. For the next few months, the wing's bombers participated in FEAF's bridge-busting campaign, flying numerous missions against key spans. The 307th BW also helped UN ground forces blunt a communist spring offensive. On May 23, it participated in a tremendous nighttime close air support effort, shredding enemy positions along the entire battlefront with radar-aimed fragmentation bombs. Until the end of the war, it continued attacks against industrial targets, bridges, troop concentrations, airfields, supply dumps, rail yards, enemy frontline positions, and lines of communications. By late 1952, the 307th BW usually flew night shoran missions, with enemy airfields and dams as primary targets. As the truce talks neared conclusion in July 1953, the wing helped spoil an enemy ground offensive, earning a Distinguished Unit Citation. By the end of hostilities, the 307th BW and 307th BG combined had flown over 5,800 combat missions.

After all these years i don't know why I thought of you. When they
sent you home to Lansing. Michigan when we were in the ambulance I
was kinda proud that I was the only one that you would talk to. I
would really like to know how you are. It always came as a passing
thing though out the the years (you know. like i wonder how that guy
is.)
Gill Called after we had been out for ten years (he was selling things
to the Air Force.) He said Major Castleberry was killed in a midair
collision at McDill and that he had seen Grinsted at the Pentigon.
tucked away in little office, He made Lt Colonel. I hope sombody
see's this and you get in touch with me. Iam 77 years old we all are
not getting any younger. Get in touch even if any body knows me.

I'm writing about my Dad, Joe Larimore. Here's his service info:
19th Bomb Wing, 30th bomb Sqdn. May to Dec. 1951 Kadena AF base, Okinawa
307th bomb wing, squadron forgotten May to Dec. 1953 Kadena
Following are a few tid bits he wrote about Korea. If you happened serve with Dad, drop me a line. He is presently living in rural Oklahoma.
-Harmon Larimore
****** A field rat had taken up residence in one of the B-29's (Blue Tail Fly?) All efforts to dislodge him, including depressurization at high altitude, had failed until finally he had completed more than seventy missions. On one occasion, the rat jumped from the forward end of the tunnel onto the radio operator's table, which prompted Jose Gonzales to take a lusty swing at him with a crash axe. No harm to the rat, but Jose destroyed some of his radio equipment. The rat seemed to subsist on C-ration scraps, but eventually he came out seeking food and was killed. Personally, I thought he deserved better.
*************
The funniest war-story I heard was war-story #43 which went like this: "There I was at forty thousand feet, flying upside down and had fallen out of the cockpit, hanging only by my prepuce, when along came this craaaazy Rabbi."
***********
While serving with the 19th Bomb Wing in 1951, one piece of literature, which made the rounds, started off like this: Twas the fourth hour before the dawn approached the land of Kadens, a messenger goeth forth to the tents of the birdmen and awaken them saying, "Verily, I say unto thee, arise and don thy garments, for the master has decreed that it shall be thus." And the birdmen, awakening, revileth the messenger, saying that his mother hath not morals and that his father never knew him. The birdmen then goeth forth to break bread, and one breaketh his hand on the bread. Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, I've forgotten the rest of that story.
