Hello,
My name is David Mesa, son of Pablo Mesa Cpl., Headquarters Company,
2nd Battalion, Company G.
When I was a kid, I was the only one who asked my father about the war
he was in. I considered him a hero for serving his country as we all
should to the men that did.
He talked so much about the friends he made durring the war, but never
mentioned their names. According to his records, my father was never
wounded. I pray to the men that died beside him, because of them I am
here.
My father served in Korea just as my grandfather served in the first
WAR. I'm currently in the United States Naval Reserve and currently hold
the rank of Chief Petty Officer. I can't explain how much my father made
an impact on my career. If their are any Men who served with him, please write back.
I would like to thank you , for serving our country.
Needs help, if anyone remembers incident

I am writing on behalf of my father, who served as a corporal in the
25th Infantry Div., Headquarters Company, APO 25 in the Korean War.
I've tried to find a listing of those who served and locate his name,
but he was not wounded and it appears most databases cover these men,
appropriately.
Any help you might give would be greatly appreciated.

Yes, this is a request for help concerning the Korean War Period !!!
In February of 1952, I was assigned to Team "E" of the 205th Signal
Repair Company ( a part of The Eighth Army). At that time, Team "E" was
located with (and shared mess, PX and other facilities with) The
Headquarters Company of The 25th Infantry Division (call name
"Lightening").
Team "E" provided service for and repair of Signal Corps Equipment
(radio, radar, telephone equipment etc.) for The 25th Infantry
Division, The Turkish North Star Brigade, 1st Marine Division (and camp
Tripoli), 7th and 8th Republic of Korea (ROK) Divisions and other units.
While in Korea, I rarely saw or had access to maps. So, other than
knowing, that at that time we were located somewhere between The
Punchbowl and Heartbreak Ridge, I never knew precisely where I was in
the "big map of things".
Also, can you locate for me (as precisly as possibile) the location
(coordinates) of some of the following organizations (during
February 1952) or areas.
1) Headquarters Company of The 25th Infantry Division
2) Heartbreak Ridge (stretching from ______ to _____)
3) The Punchbowl (approximate center and radius)
4) Camp Tripoli (1st Marine Division's rear or rest area)
5) Turkish North Star Brigade (rear area)
6) Smoke Valley (smoke generators for)
7) Artillery Valley
It's funny.... when I was in Korea, I really wasn't concerned about
where I was. I could always look down at my feet and see where I was
standing. I always knew where I was, it was just that I didn't know
where that was on a map. I just had to know where I was going (there
was always someonewho would tell me where to go).
Now, some forty-six years later, when my children and grand-children ask
me, "where were you", besides showing them some old photos or slides of
my travels through the mountains of Korea, I'd like to be able to pull
out a map and show them where I had been.
Sometime in about May of 1952, "E" Team and I were pulled back to X
Corps Command located in the Kwandae-ri and Inje areas. The 25th Div
was moved to a western sector and replaced by the 40th and 45th
Divisions which we then served along with ROK Divisions and others.
Again, any help you can give me will be greatly appreciated.
Yours truly,
David L Paulson
