NEAL BARBEE wrote on June 1, 2000 CITY AND STATE: BAYTOWN TX UNIT: A-D BARTTERIES SERVICE OR RELATIONSHIP: ARMY VETERAN - KOREA Comments: I reached Japan in March 1950 and after attending an Army school in Etta Jima, Japan was assigned to a new outfit, the 8th Army Gun Battalion. I was one of the first 10 men assigend. When the Korean War broke out we had less than 100 men in the Battalion. We was not combat ready, and they changed us to the 37th AAA, and assigned us to The Japan Longistical Command. I was oridignally in D battery, and since we had so few men, we housed a lot of GIs sent from the states. I believe the troops were from Fort Bliss, Texas. In 1951 I transfered to A battery, and in March 1952 I went to Korea. In Korea, I was assigned to A battery, 15th AAA, 7th Div.. I was on Half-Track #221 (Sick Call). Keywords:
