My father's name is William Lux Alves. He served in the Korean War from
November 1950 untill it's end in 1953. He sometimes went by his 
nicknames of Willie or Lucky.

All I know of the unit he was part of is as followes: First Marine
Division, Fleet Marine Force, F.M.F., 1st Marine Regiment, 3rd
Battallion, Anti Tank & Assault Co., Attached to I Company.

One the majore battles he talks about most often is the Battle of Bunker
Hill, or Hill 800 as it is known for it's location. Another battle he
talks about is one called the Battle of the Hook.

He has some stories from the War that I think He should have published
and maybe if some of His friends from Korea would get in touch with him,
he would have them published.

He can be reached through me through my e-mail address or mailing
address as follows: 

P.O. Box 953 Hobbs N.M. 88240.

If you or any one you might know has any information about his unit,
please get in touch with me. 

THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR HELP.
       
Sincerly,

Steve Alves
