I arrived there in the first week of July 1952. The 58th had just been reactivated, replacing the 136th, a National Guard outfit. On my 71st combat mission, I was hit and downed by an anti-aircraft gun on January 15, 1953. We were part of a max effort, three or four day series of raids against the bridges at Sinanju. I ditched in the Chongchon river and was caught less than a half hour after I went down. On September 5, 1953, after 235 days in Communist hands, I was repatriated at Freedom Village.
