Looking for Army buddies from the Korean War.

Comments: I'm looking for anyone who might have been part of my unit from June 1950 to July 1951. In the winter of "50 '51 I spent a month in a hospital in Sasabo, Japan due to burns on my face. When I returned to my unit I found out they had been north to the reservoir and about half or more of my company were gone. I felt like a stranger. I was a SFC in charge of a 60mm mortar squad. Today we had rice for supper. I told my wife that almost every time I eat rice I think of Korea,and of the Chinese who carried balls of the stuff wrapped in newspaper. They left their dead and wounded--we never did.

Keywords: Hill 193, Chipyongnee. Being in defense of the Han River. Im sorry, I can't remember any names of my buddies. Actually, because of the dreams I've had I can't separate fantasy from reality. At Chipyongnee three members of my squad took a direct hit-we found body parts of two, and the legs were gone on the third.

Looking for info on my brother

Comments:

Keywords: I would like to know if anyone was in the same unit and knew my brother, Sgt Eugene L Ottesen. He was MIA in the Korean War on 02/03/1951 and then declared dead on 02/18/1954. I would just like to know anything about him, as I was 7 years old at the time, so I don't know much about him. I would like to have some closure if I could. I heard from my parents and my older siblings that he was captured by the enemy and that is all I know and that his body was never found. He was in the battle of Panmunjom. I have found the book "The Bloody Road to Panmunjom" and have read a little about what he did.

Thank you so much.
