Comments: Korean War Project Key No: 13433 He's my uncle, my mothers brother. I'm seeking information from those vets who may have known him, and what happened to him. The family has no information from the Army about the circumstances in which he was captured or what pow camp he was in. He died 31Dec1951.

I've read several of the posts on this site, and I've found several posts from others about lost loved ones involved in fighting near Kunu-ri on 1Dec1950.

I'm wondering what happened there, anyone have any info?

Comments: Looking for anyone who served with my uncle in Korea, he lost his life in Sept. of 1950 when his unit was ambushed. He stayed with the radio and got reinforcements brought in.

He was from Minnesota. My family has passed on, they never brought up my uncle after he was killed and I wasn't born until 1951.

If anyone has info on him please let me know..

National Guard and brought into active duty during 1950. Clair was a cousin and lost during the excursion into N. Korea. The family never heard what happened to him nor if remains were ever recovered. A DNA sample has already been provided but nothing has been heard yet. My searching is primarily for his daughter who lives in Seattle. Clair also has many other fmaily members still living in Union County, Pennsylvania

Veronica Errigo Hunt wrote on 2006-03-25 18:32:35.0

Comments: Little Joe was my uncle; sadly, we never met. He was killed before I was born. My father, John, and his siblings, Frank and Mary, kept his memory alive.

Anyone with information about Joe Errigo, your service time together, or his last days in combat, please e-mail or write. Every story is important.

Joe was awarded the Purple Heart(Posthumously), the Bronze Star, and The Oak Leaf Cluster for organizing and leading his troops across the Chong-chon River near Kujang-dong, then attempting to break through enemy road blocks. He was also a POW for awile. I would like to hear your stories.

The Army sent official notification of his status (KIA) in 1953, although it was presumed he was killed in 1950 and his grave marker says 1951.

Please let me document your stories and memories.

Keywords: 82nd AAA AW Bn, attached to the Second Infantry.

My uncle was last seen by PFC Chas Guidetti and Capt.J Smolen (neither of whom I can locate) near the Chong-chon River.
