My friend and I served in the air section of the 7th Infantry division
as aerial observers adjusting artillery fire.  

My friends name is:
Gene Richards
1013 Inwood Dr.
Hurst, TX 76053
He is interested in any information your might want to send him 
regarding people serving in the air section between Nov 52 and Jul 53. 

I am uncertain concerning the unit designation of our Aviation Company.
My impression is that it was attached to Division Hqs.  I know that
the aviators and maintenance personnel were assigned directly to the 
unit.  The "back seaters" or observers initially all served as forward
observers on the line and then some were either attached to the unit or
were reassigned.  I think our designation was 7th Infantry Division Air
Section, but am not sure.
Thanks
