Bannana Nose Parker Harold Knutson Conny Olson (Sonny) Harold was killed in Korea. Sonny died back in the 80's due to illness caused by wounds he suffered. I believe Bannana Nose went on to work with LA police.

Navy Corpsman - Robert W. Thomas
On Sat, 31 Oct 1998 Bob Thomas Email address wrote: My Dad served with the 7th Marine Reg in Korea and participated in the Chosin Res campaign. I am trying to find anyone who knew him. He was a Navy Corpman by the name of Robert W. Thomas. He probably went by "Bob", but, like me (a Jr.), he was probably called "Tom" (or as most corpmen "Doc"). He received the Purple Heart while serving and his story was that a Chicom grenade went off behind him as he was pulling another Marine over a log. He did not talk much about the war, but I got this out of him becuase as a kid I saw the scar tissue around both ankles and calves and asked how he got that. He never lived to see the Memorial finally constructed, but since I live close by I go there often to honor both him and the other men and women who served and died in Korea. Semper Fi AND Anchors Aweigh! Thanks, Bob End Section: Go to Top
