Comments: Having been sent by HQ of 6/44th Arty to the Army MP Station @ Seoul to pick up a Lt. Col with a ABC News Correspondent that just arrived fron NY to document the release of (US Navy Captain and Crew Members)from the USS PUEBLO as "P O Ws" by the North.

After we all crossed the DMZ to the furthest Nothern point and successfully received the entire crew, we returned to the 2d Inf. Camp for debriefing.

Once we all ate and debriefed, I was informed by same Lt. Col and advised he would be staying and I was to take the News Correspondent back to the MP Station @ Seoul where someone else would return him to Kimpo AB for his return flight to the States with his story.

Shortly after our loading my jeep w/ his equip. we set out for the return trip to Seoul. Our trip began chaotic and probably 10 or 15 Kilometers from 2d Inf a group of Koreans came jumping out of the brush on a mountain side where I was "clipping right along" in a very hurried fashion and my drivers side mirror struck the back of the head of one of the kids with matter splattering on the canvas /plastic door with the kid going down & under my left rear wheel. For what ever my reasons at the time I decided not to stop and did NOT. Upon arriving at the MP Station the News Correspondent began ranting and raging about my runnig over and killing this kid. Neither of us had any way of knowing. The MP's on duty called a superiior officer and the Korean Police to report me with the incident. Full Reports by ALL were made before I was allowed to leave. Threatened by US Military Courtsmartial as well as Korean Imprisonment I completed a telephone call to my Father (retired AF Officer) in States and was finally released.

Comments: I was stationed in Korea in the fall of 1968. My compound was called Guje Budae which translates to scroungy compound. It was right next to ASCOM Deopt compound in Bupyeong. The 121st Med Evac Hospital that was mentioned so many times on the TV show M*A*S*H was on the ASCOM Depot compound. I was a 63H20 and I spent most of my time there working in a junk yard that was on the SP50 compound. This compound also housed a signal company and an MP company. We were right across the street from a heli-port and AV unit that flew CH-21's. During my time there we transferred over 300 M-211's to the ROK Army. It would be interesting to hear from anyone who might have some 40 year old memories to share.
