Comments: I'm writing a book on the F3D Skyknight in combat and am looking for any pilots or radar operators who flew with either VMF(N)-513 or VMF(N)-542 in Korea to interview, either by phone or email.
Also, for any family members of deceased F3D aircrew who may have personal papers, written recollections of combat in Korea, or photographs, please feel free to contact me. I am interested in telling the story of Marine jet night fighters in Korea with as much of a first-person perspective as possible.
Thanks in advance for any assistance anyone can provide.

I am very interested in speaking with anyone who served with him and might be able to provide me with even the smallest personal detail, particularly since my father died two years ago and was the last surviving member of his family.
His grave indicates the following: SGT 1 MAW MAG 12 VMF 513 so I assume that I am looking in the right place.

Comments: when rendered unusable, certain vacuum-tubes, had to be destroyed
for security reasons... when a significant number of olde, crt's, or
other radar type-tubes, were collected, the base security people
would gather up some of us who needed hours on the firing-range
and we'd open-fire on tubes just placed in the waters of, asan-man-

Comments: Comments: I am looking for any information on my Dad's tour in Korea I don't know much as he died when I was very young. His name is, Louis Fredrick Ege; Marine Air Group 12; he was at K-18, as of Jan. 1951 I don't know much else. My son is 18 now and he and my nieces and nephews want to know more about their grandfather. Thank you in advance for your help Keith Ege
