Comments: I am looking for information on my dad's unit. He was Joseph T. Veillon, assigned to D Battery, 1st 90mm AAA Gun Battalion, USMC. He joined this unit in June 1951 while stationed at Camp Lejeune. My dad was traveling on the troop train that wrecked at Lettsworth, Louisiana on August 10, 1951 while en route to Korea. I have a number of photos that he took of the wreck scene. He arrived in Korea aboard the USNS General M.C. Meigs sometime in late August 1951. I know that his unit was assigned to the area of Pusan harbor.
I would like to know what things were like for the 1st 90 AAA Gun Battalion at Pusan. I have searched extensively online and in a number of books (including Walt Cheely's fine and interesting book), but I've not found anything about any actions the unit may have been in. My dad was at Pusan from August 1951 to June 1952. Was the area around Pusan relatively quiet during this time? What was the situation around Pusan for the 1st 90?
I know the name of only Marine that my dad served with in Korea. His sergeant was Donald or Bob Cosby from New York. My dad was a country-boy from Louisiana and spoke French. He was 18 when he arrived in Korea.
Any information at all would be very appreciated. Thanks.

Comments: This item appeared in Sgt. Grit's Newsletter in which he posed the question, What were your most memorable days in the Marine Corps? Our Sgt. Vogel responds as follows:
Actually I had three best days.
1. The day I graduated from Boot Camp (P.I.) 9/9/51
2. The day I met Chesty Puller at Pendleton. (Full Field Marching Pack inspection). 8/15/52
3. The day I met Gen. Lemuel C. Sheperd Commandant of the Marine Corps in Korea. (Personnel inspection). October of 1952., Don't remember the day.
The marching pack inspection went well for most of us. Gen. Shepard asked my age (18) and how long I had been in Korea. (14 days) His reply was good man.
There could not have been a more proud Marine that day.

He was 17-18 years old at the time and he spoke fluent French. He served in Korea in 1951-1952. He was on a troop train that collided with a civilian passenger train near Lettsworth, Louisiana in 1950-1951. I'm seeking information on what larger unit the 1st 90mm Gun Bn belonged to and any actions it may have been involved in. I'm also seeking anyone who might have known my dad and remember any experiences they may have had together. Thanks.

It was about the third day out to sea when I broke out with poison ivy from the waist down.I'll never forget that week. I continue to have vived memories of that wreck. I remember the first night in Korea as we disembarked the air raid sirens while we were moving to our gun compound to relieve the Army. I also remember the planes landing in front of our gun position at (K-3,I think) and the pilot that crashed just short of our position. Would like to hear from anyone that served 8-51 to 5-52.

I remember that the Army had a riot on some island
and ours was the only radio that could reach the
good guys. An Army General came to us and asked to use our radio. He asked what could he do for me(Larry was on R and R)and I asked for a fifth of whiskey and the next day his aide brought one to me, I got crocked and had a Capt mass. What could he do?
Nothing-No body else could man the radio Ha/Ha

Comments: The info I have is my brother Corporal Walter John
Yuszkiewicz was a member of Company I, 3rd Battalion, 7th Marines, 1st Marine Division. He
was killed in action on Feb. 22, 1953 the day after my 5th birthday. He was killed in action
while fighting the enemy and I am interested in
knowing the circumstances surrounding his death.
Did you know him and can you tell my anything a-
bout my brother?
