Well it's 2020 and a big sh!t storm of a year!! I've been meaning to post something like for years to document your life/service and have always put it off....well no more! 2020 has been a year of anniversaries.....75 years for Pearl, for D-Day for WWII victory etc...! Then 70 years for Korea etc..... I could go on and on...but 70 years ago the battles at the Chosin Reservoir and the Kunu-Ri Gauntlet began!

Somewhere in the time span of days that I 'am typing the 9th Infantry Regiment of the 2nd Infantry is retreating south in Korea, Much of this division will be destroyed! Somewhere, somehow your lost! I never knew you, I've never met you but strangely your one of my greatest hero's and I fight every day to find more!

Just a start.....gonna build on this!

 

1937....Wyoming will be a work in progress!

 

Well I've been on this site for years but never expected this!! I get the ribbing that goes on elsewhere on here Opana & I respect you as a researcher but SERIOUSLY!!!!!!! I was just trying to start a thread to share/memorialize a great uncle that is MIA from the Korean War...a WWII Veteran!!! This I hope was a MISTAKE!!!!! But Damn if it was a joke or smart @ss comment its gone to far! A simple like or read and move on would've been better!!!! I didn't add more because I was getting tired and wanted to get some info correct before posting more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Any Admin available please delete this thread!!!!!!!!!!!

 

No Worries....sorry for calling you out but it kind of hit hard when I saw the post! Thank you and hope you get to full speed soon! Hope to add more content to this after some full speed organization of my own!
