Comments: Again, more from me. I believe you wee the commander of the "Dentist Able" while we were at Mason through Inchon at the destroyed TB Hosp. I really seem to remember the name. I also stayed in and did 40 months flying in and out of Vietnam (not a pilot) as a "route briefing intelligence officer" stationed at Clark. While I was at Clark, I also was one of the check pilots for the aero-club. This is an honor for me as I have had no contact with any one in the division since leaving Korea in 1952. I can be contacted at roycurtis@juno.com.

Comments: Cant belive it I was assigned to the 606th at Shaw in the early summer of 1950 and rode the train to SFC for the boat crossing to Korea. I was in the "Dentist Able" unit that moved multiple times, starting with Mason, Korea and on to the TB Sanitarium wreckage to set up at Inchon on ht swea wall. I then went to the main unit when the VRC team was dismantled. I was in Korea from the fall of 1950 for 18 months before being assigned to the 27th Air Division at Norton. Been a very long time ago, I am now coming up on 88 years old, What a flood of memories came back from reading this. I have been going thru a lot of old pictures, just for memories. Any 606ers left, I would love to hear from you. (Charles) Roy Curtis.

Comments: Can anyone on this site recommend any autobiographies/memoirs in which the author describes their personal experience of hand-to-hand combat? I am doing an academic research study around this specific experience of warfare and searching for source documents. Any recommendations on books from the Korean War, or other conflicts, is greatly appreciated. Your website has also provided some great insights already. Thank you for putting this together.

Comments: Enjoying the site very much. My mother's first cousins Marion "tynce" (short for tinesy, later known as "Rusty" Lee DeShong, is the Marine in the extreme upper righthand corner of the famous David Douglas Duncan photo of 1st Div. He was later a pipeline welder, contractor and commercial fisherman in Alaska. He retired to Dothan, GA near some of his old war buddies. He passed away a few years ago and is buried in Miller, OK, next to his mother, Ruth Deshong Machler. He was my hero.
