Comments: I am looking for information on my father, Harold "Red" E. Rider from Illinois. I was 17 when he passed away in 1980 from Leukemia and did not even realize that he had been in the Korean War until much later in life. He and my mother were divorced when I was real small so weekend visits were obviously not enough time to tell me or maybe he just didn't want to discuss it. It may have also been because I was a girl. I don't know, but I don't even know what battalion he was in, what dates he served, or where he was stationed. If anyone remembers him, please contact me at merlegail@casscomm.com. I want to share this information with my children, especially my sons.
