Under this Korean War subject, I would like to see the SCARWAF units
listed.
SCARWAF stands for Special Catogory Army With Air Force. We were Army
troops attached to the Air Force. Ususally Aviation Engineer Bn's.
My unit was the 808th Engineer Bn at K-8 (Kunsan) Airbase. We kept
the Air base up and running.
Take care
Ted

Hello, I am looking for anyone who knew my dad during his tour in
Korea.
I have little to no good info in this area. He passed on in 1985. He
never shared his experience. I know he had a close buddy, WILLIAM
SPRING, from his unit. All help from you, the VETERANS, will be greatly
appreciated.
SINCERELY

Finding John Dillon

Subject: Looking for someone in the 808 Engineering Company
I am searching for someone on behalf of my father, who is a refugee of
the Korean War. During 1952 and 1953 he was located near the Kun San
air base and made friends with a man by the name of John J. Dillon.
This man was working with the air force in radio repair and
communications although he was in the army. My father's name is Kwang
Choi, and he would greatly appreciate it if you could contact him with
any information concerning his old friend.
His number is 718 803 2612 or you can reply directly to this address.
Thank you,
Roseanne Choi

I am looking for Sam Brabson with whom I served in Korea. He was the
Supply seargent while I was at K-8 808th EAB Co. "A"
This was a SCARWAF unit. I find that in civilian life, not many
individuals know what that meant. I usually tell them that it was "an
underwater mess kit repair battalion."
If anyone else wishes to contact me, feel free to do so.
