Was in photo lab from Jan to Mar '53, then went TDY to manage radio station Troubadour at Army X Corps in Kwan Dary Valley near the 38th. 'Remember a Capt. White as lab CO, and a Lt. Crowder who was with me at the TV-photo unit at Burbank CA. Also remember the night a NK bogey tried, but failed, to hit the lab. He did damage a F-80R on the tarmac. I'm now a retired
aviation writer/editor/photographer. Would like to hear from any other lab guys who were at the K-14 lab during my short tenure.

Comments: I was assigned to the 4th FIW at K-14 April 1952 - Feb. 1953. I was in POL where 4th and 67th personnel worked together.
I have been trying to locate M/Sgt Seldon G. Baker who was there at the same time as I was. He was 1st/Sgt of one of the squadrons I believe. I didn't know him then but I was his Chief Clerk from 7/55 - 3/57 At Hill AFB and Blytheville AFB with the 461st Bomb Wing. Any help in locating him would be appreciated.

Comments: The 50 years have dimmed many memories. Highlights were a hiking trip to the summit of Witches Tit With a fellow airman Schmitt from Kentucky. Also the five of us who were sent to Itazuke AFB in Japan for major overhauls of RF80 aircraft. We were there for three months and sent back to Kimpo to finish our tour. I would like to hear from any who have any knowledge of the tour there.

Comments: My grandfather, Charles Willard "Chuck" Shimer, was in the 67th Supply Squadron from March of 1951 to February of 1952. He was initially in the 543rd Ammo Supply Squadron, first from Pueblo, Colo. to Norton AFB, San Bernardino, CA to Korea in September 1950. He was wounded and evacuated to Nagoya, Japan on December 23rd, 1950. I would love any information anyone can provide me on the units mentioned, plus Company B 8069th Ranger Bn. Charles was the acting first sergeant from Mar to May of 1951 with the 67th Supply Squadron and was later assigned as a Demolition Tech with the Ranger Bn above. Thanks for your assistance!

Comments: Just a quick note to direct your attention to a small website that has photos from K-14, Kimpo air base, circa '53-'54. Mostly stuff from the perspective of the 336th FIS -- Sabre jocks. But a few photos that may appeal to any who served at K-14.

I returned on the Revisit Korea program in 93 and thoroughly enjoyed it. Article in the Denver Post (29 Mar 99)from the Dallas Morning News by David Flick identified the website. Your link to www.theforgottenvictory.org and their attempt at a Korean war museum in IL is very good.
