I am really interested in the 518th Ordnance Co (DS)The DS is for direct
support.I believe the designation MM was when it was a medium maintnance
company.
I was with the Co from Jan 1953 till July 1954.I understand the Co. was
dissolved shortly thereafter and the colors sent to Ft Hood Tx.
I was a wrecker operator the entire time I was there and saw much of the
country side.I spent many days and nites with the the heavy artillery
units changing tubes and with the Engineers doing whatever with my 6 ton
wrecker needed to be done.Oxrieder Boulevard was a familiar place.
I have been trying for years to locate a SFC Frank G. Lowe who was my
Recovery Section Chief during 1953.I can only assume he made the
military his career as I saw him a number of years later in Europe but
lost track of him after that.I'm quite sure he spent two tours of duty
in Korea rotating the last time in 53.
Keep up the good work And I'll keep searching
