Comments: For years, I've heard my father, Walter Edward Dennis Jr, allege he was at "Pork Chop Hill". He alleges he enlisted February, 1949, in the Arkansas Army National Guard in the 153rd Infantry Division. He states there were 90mm tanks, and he served in the tank company. He also states he served at Fort Knox,KY (Jun 1949) for Armor Basic Training, and proceeded with with Armor Advanced Infantry Training in Sep 1950.He also states he had BMT (Basic Military Training) at Fort Polk (then known as "Camp Polk") in the summer of 1950.
He indicates he served with a combat unit in Korea with Company C, 10th Heavy Tank Battalion, Combat Command "A" for twenty-one days in February and March of 1951. He indicates that he was injury when his tank was blown up, that he was evac'd to Japan and then to the United States to the Hot Springs Medical Facility, Hot Springs, AR. in March/April 1951. Following his recouperation, he returned to the Army National Guard 30 Apr 1951 and was discharged 22 Sep 1951. He was a Private/E-2, and served with the 5th Armor Division, Company A, 5th Quartermaster Battalion from the above dates.
Now that I've stated this, let me explain my dilemma. His father, my grandfather, and my uncle, his brother, states he never left the continental United States and was never in Korea.
As he is now almost seventy-five years old, he is unable to do for himself.
My interest is whether he was imaginatively creating his own military history in Korea. I have verified his service from April 1951 through September 1951 with the Arkansas Army National Guard. That much I know is true.
He brings up the men he served with in Korea: 1LT Vitatoe, CPT Early, and 1SG Schoonover. Does anyone remember any of these names?
Thank you for allowing me to post this information. My younger brother states I should just let it drop. He spent a good number of years in the Air Force. I spent 4 years in the Air Force from 1970-1974 and served in Vietnam. I also served in the Louisiana Army National Guard for 4 years, three which were AGR/Full-time.

He said he was both in the infantry and the artillery. I know he had a Springfield 30.06 he used over there and talked about sharp-shooting some. He didnt talk much about it. I have no idea what unit he ended up with as his records were burned up in the St. Louis fire. I would really like to find out what unit he was with and their history in the Korean War.

Comments: My grandfather Mason Thorne served in Korea, he was a medic, but I don't know where. I have 3 photos sent to me after his sister died that were taken in Korea. The back of one says "Fred and a Chestnut tree" This is all the info I have, and would like to know who he is, and if possible reunite the photo with his family.

Comments: My father in Law is a vetran of the 7th Cav and I was looking for some historical facts from 1950-51 He was a squad leader who saw a lot of battles in that short period of time. My father in law still has PSTD and is seeing his VA reps regulary. I hope that you can provide me with some historical facts to help him trace back some needed imforamation.

Comments: My Karen Thery/Sorenson,would like to know what her father was doing at Ft Huachuca. He was stationed there from 1951 to 1953. We have not been able to find his unit. All we have is his DD-214. We have contacted the department of the army,but they claim all of his service records were destroyed in the fire at the archives in 1976. Karen would just like to contact anyone who served with him, thanks.
