KAGANEW BN - Finding 32 IR men

Comments: It is about two men that history never forgets about their sacrifices, pride and performance on the battlefield, which will remain unforgettable by the allies, as well as by enemy. It is about two different men of different nationalities who signed with their mixed blood the contract for the security of international peace. This common action of these two heroes will also remind the free world the struggle against the force of violence and darkness that took place in Korean War five decade ago. It is one of so many actions that should be worth mentioning. The mixed blood was performed by PVT Melese Berihun and a South Korean civilian who was assigned on engineering work on MLR on June 21, 1952, it was both gallantry and humanitarian in nature. Here is what Kimon Skordiles said in his book “Kangew”. “ On the morning of the 21st of June, South Koreans attached to the unit for miscellaneous job, were trying to lay wires for defensive reinforcement in front of the 1st company of the Ethiopian Battalion. While the South Korean civilians were doing this job, the enemy observed them and opened fire with heavy mortars. Two of these men did not have enough time to get under cover. One man fatally wounded, the other critically wounded by an enemy shell. PVT. Melese Berihun of the 1st company left his bunker to determine the site of the falling shells. There in the pandemonium he heard cries of pain from the South Korean civilian, calling for help in his own language. The Ethiopian soldier did not understand what the wounded Korean was saying; but the painful cries were directed not only to the ears, but to tender heart. The Ethiopian soldier heard the voice of the wounded, and while the shells of the enemy mortar fell around him, ignored the danger, risking his life to rescue the helpless man. While he was lifting the man in his arms a shell blew them up nearby, instantly killing them both. They died in each other’s arms. That was how they were found. That was how they were buried at the Pusan cemetery – in a common grave, a symbol of their common sacrifice, in a common struggle, for a common goal. The mixed blood is the foundation of friendship and a symbol of unity between Ethiopian and Korean. It is the fire of comradeship that come alive in the dark days of the Korean War, the friendship that will remain in perpetuation in the history through the joining of the hands of the two countries.

The above story was taken from the Ethiopian Korean War Veterans association’s annual magazine. If you would like to contact the association or its members, please email me.

Front Line Movie near Pork Chop

Comments: I need anyone who was with Pfc Ricardo Carrasco of the 7th Division, 32nd Infantry Regiment, Company "A". He fought on Baldy and Pork Chop between March and July 1953. He was picked to make the only frontline movie by Paramount called "Cease Fire!" which premiered in November, 1953. He was offered a movie contract by Hal Wallis, but turned it down and had his character "killed" two weeks early so he could go back and help his "fellahs" in the battle for Pork Chop. He shot his death scene on the morning of July 6, 1953, drove back that afternoon, and was killed that night. I've been at this for 9 years and need your help to finish his book. Please got to my website and help me! Thank you. Resa LaRu Kirkland

I am trying to obtain information for my daughter-in-law, who has only her father's name and the fact that he was killed in Korea when she was 2 or 3 years old.
