Comments: Just found entry 49930 (message 27 -April 2, 2005 from Virginia Meek.) I was on a liberty craft returning to the Kearsarge on May 31, 1948 and due to the rough sea, we were taken to another carrier to wait out the storm, if I remember correctly it was the Coral Sea. I hope she is still able to visit this site and sees this message. I will be happy to speak with her. I don't recall the exact time of day but it was well after dark.

Comments: I have slides my father took in Korea in 1954. I would like to share them but do not know where/how to post them. INcluded are photos of Kozluski "ski"; Lofflar; Kabes; Luepe; Miracle; Garrett; Gibson, Rusty, and Hamlet. Some are labelled 1st Mar Chapel and O.P. Texas DMZ if that helps define where these were taken. My dad's service records don't include his Korean service so I have been unable to narrow it down.

If anyone is interested or knows how I can share these, please let me know.

Comments: I'm trying to figure out the name of the Marine Colonel who would have headed the Judge Advocate General's office in Seoul in the spring of 1953. My husband's grandpa knew him. I'm writing a book about his time in Korea, and this Colonel gave him some good advice as he was attempting to adopt a child (my father-in-law). Any advice as to how I might identify and/or contact this man would be very helpful. Thank you.
