They are There as of 2007!!!

Comments: I am a former State Police investigator and formerly worked for the largest intelligence agency in the world in the far east for several years. I recently returned from China where I lived near the North Korean border. During this time I spoke with people from North Korea and people who had relatives that lived there and frequently visited them. They were from three different areas in China and did not know each other. They all stated that Americans were seen working in several fields during the day and were guarded by armed North Korean guards. I also spoke with a European aid worker who told me where the dead were buried. After returning I gave this information to the following agencies and individuals;

FBI - Seattle office (twice in person) White House - Washington DC email DPMO - Washington DC telephone conversation Email to Chuck Norris and Mike Huckabee NBC News ABC News CBS News CNN News Fox News Governor Bill Richardson before his trip to North Korea, 2007.

To this date only Bill Richardson and DPMO has responded to me concerning this. Governor Richardson travelled to North Korea in 2007 and confronted the North Korean authorities with this information and urged them to clear this up as soon as possible. DPMO (Dan Baughman) who was with Governor Richardson on his trip and attempted to "debunk" all of my information. I am convinced there are some still alive from the Vietnam War and possibly the North Korean war there as my sources are reliable. This is not made up!! I have only dealed in fact based upon interviews and conversations from reliable sources. So everyone can deny this (denial of reality) if they wish. The sad fact is they are there and have been abandoned for whatever reason?? Just think of them during your "easy" life here and realize what price they have paid for you. I will never forget them.

He was taken prisoner around Hoengsong on Feb. 12, 1951. POW until his death Nov. 30, 1951. If anyone out there has photos of Ft. Lewis from around 1949 I would be so grateful to see them. Or if anyone might have known him while they were there and can share stories or just information would be great.

Missing Soldiers

Comments: I recently lived near the North Korean border in Northern China. During this time I investigated and interviewed several persons who visit and have visited family still inside North Korea. They told me of Americans seen working in the fields of the North Korean countryside (east of Nampo and south of Kanggye). Some of the men were older (60-70) and some were 50-60 which would make them Vietnam veterans. Some of my sources told me they were placed there from Russia and China after diplomatic relations were being "normalized" with the US. I have formerly worked for a US Intelligence agency and I am a former state police investigator. I notified the FBI, Whitehouse, CBS, NBC, ABC and Mr. Bill Richardson the Governor from New Mexico. Mr. Richardson took my information last week during his recent trip to North Korea and informed a commanding general of the need to return these men and remains to their families. Mr. Richardson is the only person that took action on this information and responded to me to this date (5-21-07). If I learn more I will inform Mr. Richardson. There are live POWs there!!

29th Infantry Regiment USA

Comments: Dear Sir,Senator McCain,

I have heard family stories over the years about Uncle Paul.I was born in 1958 and know him only through family stories passed on to me.

He was Paul L. McKittrick a PVT. with the 29th Infantry Regiment USA. Co.L. He joined the Military in 1950 and served in the Korean war. He is officially listed as dying Oct 31, 1950 however his body was never recovered by his family.

He is listed as being born, 4 Nov 1933. Military records show that he was interred six years after death on 20 Feb, 1956 in Rosslyn Va. Section or plot 33, grave or lot no. 5795.

Until July of 2006 we did not have the above mentioned records. My Mother along with other family members always held out the hope for years that Uncle Paul could be alive somewhere,possibly in a prison camp.

My grandmother went to her grave always believing this "hope" to be true. My mother received letters from Uncle Paul while he was in boot camp and the letters abruptly stopped when he was shipped out to Korea in the fall of 1950. My mother was 15 at the time.

Letters of MIA were sent to my grandmother but a body or dog tags belonging to our Uncle Paul were never located/given to our family.

Our elderly Aunt Jan wrote to the government asking for information earlier this year. The information received gave us hope that questions we felt may never be answered could now be addressed.

In all this I would like to add a story of divine interest.

Virgil,another Uncle and Paul's brother recently passed away due to cancer. In the days preceding his death my mother and Uncle Virgil(her brother) had a few heart to heart talks about life after death. My mother asked Uncle Virgil if when he crossed over, and if there was a way, to please let her know somehow what happened to their brother Paul. Uncle Virgil promised to do his best.

The morning of Uncle Virgil's funeral our Aunt Jan told my mother she had something for her. She explained she had written a letter to the government a few months prior asking for any information regarding Uncle Paul. She felt after all these years she would look for closure for the family. She received a copy of his "Report of Interment" just before the funeral and gave my mother a copy that morning. Thank you Uncle Virgil, good job!

Any information about Uncle Paul, his comrades, whereabouts, what may have actually happened to him and his company, anything at all, even the smallest of details would provide a great comfort to our family. Especially my mother.

The death benefit received by my Grandmother for my Uncle Paul's Military service allowed her to pay back taxes and keep the family farm all those years ago. Uncle Paul looked out for her even after death. The farm is still owned by family and is located in Viola Wisconsin. It still has the old outhouse.

While I could add a whole lot more to the history of all those years ago I will leave it as is for now.

A final note is that Uncle Paul was only 17 when he offically died.

On behalf of the Mckittrick/McCarville family, Thank you for any help you can give.

Maureen McCarville.

Comments: Am looking for anyone from POW camps, Camp 5 in particular, who recalls Capt. Filmore W. McAbee,S-3, 3rd Bn, 5th Cav., captured by Chinese near Unsan in late November 1950. Believe he was in group of wounded from "the lost battalion" with whom Chaplain Emile Kapaun stayed until all were captured. I think he is mistakenly referred to as Capt. McCabe in footnote about Dr. Sidney Esensten in book "Remembered Prisoners of a Forgotten War". Mac was also I Company commander in 349th Regt., 88th ID during Italian Campaign in WWII; wounded and twice decorated; company received unit citation.

WILLIAM B 'BILLY' ISAAC SARFATY

Comments: Looking for ANYONE that knew my father (good, bad or indifferent)...

William B Sarfaty, William Isaac Sarfaty, Bill Sarfaty, Scotty Sarfaty... all names that he used at one time or another... others are possible....

My real father was concealed from me until after his death in the mid 1980's. My mom changed my last name and I was raised to believe that my step-father was my real father.

William B Sarfaty was in Army and in Japan when N Korea began invasion in July 1950, his unit was one of the first sent to stop the invasion. Info I have gotten so far indicates that he was Wounded in Battle during the first 10 days of the War... I have indications that he spent recuperative time in the Osaka Army Hospital...but afterward was returned to duty in Korea.... I have un-substantiated reports that he was a POW... but have no independant proof of this.

I would like to hear from ANYBODY that knew or was acquainted with him... He was not a perfect person and I understand a little of why my mother kept him from me BUT I would like to know something about him. I have tracked down some family in California but I'm in Georgia and can't get out to the west coast. Most of the family that I've contacted do not know what kind of history or, at least, are not willing to share anything about his past....

I am trying to regain contact with him, and this seemed like a possible route to find out where he is living. Thanks, Carlene K. Jelovchan

Comments: I don't know specifics. I entered this site because I know a Veteran that was a POW and he tells me incredible stories. His name is Joe Bailey.

He tells one incredible story of two young Korean boys who stopped to feed him. The young boys made him some soup. The two boys were killed in front of him. He believes that those two boys might still be alive today if they wouldn't of stopped to feed him. He still has nightmares.

Seeking Harold Roger Balfanz

Comments: Seeking news of or location of my cousin, Harold Roger Balfanz. He lived in Chicago until the mid to late 80s, Then moved to Florida, possibly in the New Port Richey area, and we've lost contact. I know he was treated at a VA hospital in Illinois (Waukegan?) for a number of years, so possibly sought treatment at a VA hospital in Florida.

Keywords: He was a POW early in the Korean War.

looking for survivors

Comments: I am referring specifically to the fear of communism and of "brainwashing" that was so prevalent in the years during and following the war. I would like to know if the regular enlisted man was stigmitized by his contact with an enemy that represented such a vast and unknown evil. I was born in 1954 and want this information for a work of fiction. I would appreciate hearing from anyone who would like to share their experience regarding this matter.

Keywords: I am interested in hearing from any veteran who feels there was a fundamental change in perception, at the top echelons of the military and of the government, toward the enlisted men of the Korean War, particularly POW'S, following the end of that conflict.

Charles Pate - POW

Comments: I am trying to find information regarding the "21" POWs sent to China about. The official story from the military was the POWs chose to stay in China. My dad, Arlie Pate, was one of the "21". He never spoke of his ordeal, however, we believe he was subjected to an experimental project on brainwashing for 4 years. The military has refused to comment on this subject. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
