Subject: 171st Field Artillary unit 45 Inf Div
I served in the 45th Inf Div after it's activation in 1952 at Ft Polk,La
and then joined it in Korea from 52 to 53. Would like to contact any one
who served in the 171st FA Bn during that time.
Also on Koje Do island during prison riots in 1952 where I served with
555 MP Bn.
Many thanks
