Information on death of Pasqui Coppola

Jack Reissman wrote on 2005-11-15 09:14:25.0

Comments: Wish all you former 43oth people belonged to the Korean War Veterans Association. The magazine, the Graybeards, has a story about the 430th and it's activities during the time I was with them. July 1951 to July 1952.

Got a call from a Vincent Anthony Coppola, asking if I knew anything about the death of his brother, killed in an accident, May 8, 1952. His brother was in A company 430th and the accident happened around the Hongchon area.

Being I was in C company, I had no information about his brother's death.

Any of you guys, from A company, who are familiar with Pasqui Coppola and know what the facts are about his death, please contact me and I will forward the information to his brother, who has no computer.

Please, wrack your brains and come up with anything you might know about this unfortunate death.

Sincerely, Jack Reissman Pittsburgh, Pa.

Koje Do is now a vacation resort. Something that people who were there during the POW riots, would have never believed would happen to that place. And they built a bridge from Pusan down to Koje. Even have hotels and resturants there. Who'da ever thunk it??
