Hello, i'm the daughter of a Korean Vet. Killed in June 1951. George
Herman Hansen. He flew jets. Killed on his last mission, on his way home.
He was a Ace fighter pilot. I'm looking for anyone who might have known
him. Or maybe you could direct me in the area for me to continue my
search. All i know was the date of his death and that he trained in
texas.

I was attached to the 27th Ftr Wg (523rd Squadron of the 27th Fighter
Escort Wing from Itazuke Air Base)for 56 missions and transferred to the
49th as they were converting to the F-84E from F-80's.
I helped train pilots of the 49th at Itazuke, Japan then moved to K-2 at
Taegu to finish my missions. I flew a total of 101 missions.
The Squadron Co. was a Major Bud Elrod and Group Co. Col William L.
Mitchell Jr.

On your Korean War casuality listing of Air Force pilots, a fellow
named Zeigler: He went to High School & College with my next door
neighbor. He remaines one of the MIA's from 1953.
Off the top of my head I don't remember what you have on Zeigler,
Was flying F-84G 51-865 when downed by flak on 25 April 1953. Was seen
to bailout successfully, gather up his parachute and run into some
trees.
One Do you read me was weakly received by his flight leader from
Zeigler's survival radio.
