In search of Stormy Garr

Comments: I am the daughter of Charles Humphries, who witnessed the murder of Captain Stormy Garr in 1970 by another soldier. This incident has caused my father great grief over the years and we would like to put closure to this. I'm sure many of you understand the mental anguish that something like this could cause to a young soldier that was drafted in, and the impact it can have on the rest of his life.

We are having great difficulty finding any information on this incident. No records, no family, etc. If you have any information or know anything about this please respond. I would greatly appreciate it.

I am looking for any information I can find about my father's brother. His name was Richard D. Collage. He was killed in action in Korea. His remains were never recovered. I have visited the National Cemetery of the Pacific in Hawaii.

His name is listed among Korean War KIA's. The marker indicates he was a member of the 32nd Infantry Regiment, 7th Infantry Division. I believe he volunteered for duty in Korea while he was serving with the Berlin Brigade in Germany.

I do not know the date or location of his death. I would appreciate any information I could get about this regiment or how to conduct further research.

LOOKING FOR ANY ONE WHO KNEW MY NOW DECEASED FATHER...

Comments: I lost my Dad a few years ago, than my Mom not 9 months later. I am their only child/women. I finally obtained some of my Dad's medals. I'm currently researching his "Silver Star" medal he was to have received for his bravery on Pork Chop Hill. My Dad spoke a lot about Kentucky. I also know he used to chase after awols too. He saw a lot of action but only spoke of some silly events. I only know of a couple of horrible events since he wouldn't speak of them. I am quite ill too. I'm loaded w/tumors, I'm now 51. I won't rest until I get my Father's "Silver Star" for him. He would have never said his commanding officer put in for it if it wasn't true. From what I understand my Dad scouted "the hill" for the other soldiers...my Dad was a Sgt. I believe he was in the 32nd infantry (??) I don't have all the info right at hand now...I just happened upon this site. At this very moment I'm looking at a photo of my Dad in is Army uniform. My Dad was a very dark haired and handsome italian. He was until the day he died. I believe all the memories finally got to him and he stopped taking important medication and killed himself due to this "forgotten war." I know his best friend was blown to bits right by my Dad's side by a mortar. My Dad has a "sharp shooter" medal, the "bronze star", the "purple heart" and other medals.... He went to camp Breckinridge (forgive my spelling).... My Dad would only (usually) tell me just some funny stories of cutting a can so when a fellow soldier went to pee in his sleeping bag, he got all wet...my Dad was a joker and had a great sense of humor. He was and always will be my Hero! I'll submit futher info as soon as can...more on his "outfit, etc.". I probably won't live all that long myself, but I can't go until I get my Dad's "Silver Star" that is justly his. I didn't even know he had the other medals until I researched with a Senator's office here in Rhode Island. They said there was a fire in 1973 and many of my Father's records were burned. I "MUST" get the info regarding this medal (Silver Star) or I will not rest even in my death. Both my Parents to me are hero's. My Mom had five different cancer's and died in my arms after 3 1/2 days in hospice. My dad just dropped dead in our kitchen. I found him to late to revive him (I had some medical training) and knew he would be brain dead....that was not my Father. My Dad and his brother and their father owned greenhouses...they grew wholesale flowers to sell. My Dad joined the Army to get away from his Father. My Father ended out to be a cripple due to his injuries of the Korean Conflict and couldn't live like that.....GOD BLESS YOU ALL....I LOVE YOU ALL!!!

Keywords: My Dad's name is Carmine Iannitti. I believe he was called "Jessie James" as a nickname. I'm not too sure of the unit...will do more research. My Dad was in the battle of Pork Chop Hill. He has numerous medals of which I just found out about.

Chosin Movie

Comments: For the past year and a half I have been researching the Chosin campaign. I was originally asked to write a script about the Marine breakout on the West side. But the more I researched, the more I came to realize that the Army's role has been largely ignored or minimized (except for the great book East of Chosin). I have since switched gears and have started focusing on the story of Task Force MaClean/Faith. Appleman's book gives a great picture of the overall action but it is lacking in the personal side. I am now attempting to develop an idea of what the commanders were like (especially LTC Faith), the men of the unit and the overall conditions during the campaign. I want to know what the men were feeling early on, in the middle and during the breakout. And I especially would like to know how survivors felt days, weeks, months and years later.

If anyone would like to contribute to this project, please e-mail me.
