Hedron 33 Korea

Comments: My father, Robert Carpenter, served with Headquarters Sqdn, MAG-33 from August 1950 to July 1951. He was a radio operator and chief radio operator, first a serjeant, then a staff sgt. I would like to hear from anyone who can tell me what the history of that unit would have been or tell me where to find it. I have read US Marine Operations 1950-1953, but it focuses on 1st Marine Division. In Volume III, after Inchon, it never mentions MAG 33 at all, only MAG 12. I would appreciate any information. Thank you

K-3, MAG 33, March 52-53 - John Kellen

Comments: Quoted from Laura Osterman's entry, 2006:

"I am looking for anyone who may have served with my father, John Kellen. He was stationed at K-3 from March 52-53. He was with the "Canhouse Commandos", Base Security. I'd love to surprise him with connections to some old friends."

My son, John Kellen's grandson LCpl Tsuffis, Brian is currently stationed at New River MCAS (MAG 26, MAL S26). My father was stationed at Cherry Point after leaving Korea in 1953. We would love to connect with anybody who remembers those days; dad would thoroughly enjoy it also.

I need to know about my dad's service during World War II.

Comments: He never really talked much about his service, and I would really like to know what the "Boys of MAG 33" did during the war. I've tried researching on the internet, but haven't come up with much. If anyone knows anything, I would really appreciate knowing this part of my dad's life. Thanks

Keywords: My dad joined the Marines January 9, 1943 in Odessa Texas. His name was John "Jack" or "Red" Coats. I have a picture of him in Okinawa and on the back of the picture it says "Boys of MAG 33 Okinawa Shima April 1945".

Col. Ward E. Dickey

Comments: I am the grandson of Col. Ward E. Dickey, who commanded MAG-33 from its inception at Cherry Point. His daughter, Dolores, who was with him at Pearl on Dec. 7th, would like nothing more than to hear from or know of someone who may have served with her father in 1944. Major George F. Axtell's Marine Fighter Attack Squadron (VMF) 323, the Death Rattlers, was part of this Group, as well. Thank you.

Wallis 1942

Comments: Sir, My name is Chris LAURENT, I work in Wallis island (Samoa area - South Pacific) for 10 years and love this place. I created an association called Uvea Museum Association few months ago. Our goal is to open a museum about US occupation during Pacific War. I know that MAG 31 was here during WW2. Could you tell me more about that time in Wallis. Do you know some people who could share this time with us or have some pictures ? I've attended the last reunion of 8th AAA in Washington DC august 4th who were in Wallis from may 26 1942 to april 1946. I went there to get contacts and answer any questions marines may have and tell them that some people still think about their coming. Don't hesitate to ask me any question you may have. Sincerely
