| PFC Harold W. Jinright, was there at
the Chosin Reservoir with the 1st Marine Div. He would like to
complete his ribbons received in the campaign. He received the
Presidential Unit citation and is not sure how it looks. He does
not talk very much about the the battles. But does say his job was
to make snow balls, I Don't think so. He now has frostbite to his
feet and refuses to receive any VA benifits for his injury. Does
any know when the next reunion in the So. Calif. Area please let me
know. Msgt. E. David Flores USAFR Email: dogmeat7-at-earthlink-dot-net Pomona, CA Tuesday, December 30, 2003 |

| My father was in the Marine Corps. He graduated from
bootcamp at Parris Island in 1963, then he went to Vietnam. This past
October, exactly 40 years after the date of his graduation, his platoon
had the honor of visiting Parris Island. About 15 men from his platoon
and their wives, me, and one of their Drill Instructors visited. I've
always had respect for soldiers from all branches, but this experience
made me even more proud of each and every one. This is a great website.
It's easy to use, resourceful, and very well done. Thanks. Jara Henderson Email: JLHenderson-at-milligan-dot-edu Johnson City, TN Thursday, December 25, 2003 |

But today I learned that I have lived across the street from a true
hero. A man that through the grace of God lived to tell his story
to my son. His story of survival at Chosin Reservoir has changed
not only my idea who this man is, but has enlightened me to the many
hero's of the Korean War. Thank You Perk (Merwin Perkins) for
having been my friend since I was four years old. Liz Bertz Westlund Email: ewestlun-at-ties2-dot-net West St. Paul, MN Sunday, December 14, 2003 |

Southern California is publishing Half-staff news daily. Even
though the Flag Code states only Governors and Presidents can direct the
flag be flown at half-staff, there are many instances where we should
recognize and honor fallen heroes. We will publish half-staff
submissions. If you are honoring a fallen hero's passing, and the
governor of your state, or the President did NOT issue an executive
order directing a half-staff flying of the flag, let us know. E-mail your half-staff news to: news@fivestarflags.com. We will publish your submissions. Publication is daily. Bryan Email: bryan-at-fivestarflags-dot-com Homepage: www.fivestarflags.com Cosa Mesa, CA Sunday, November 16, 2003 |

| Why can't the people of the world
understand the concepts of freedom. Look at our way of life. We have
mixed races working together, we have mixed religions that don't get
along in other countries, living side by side and cause no grief to
their neighbors. We help nations in trouble, we were there when the iron
curtain went up and stood by Western Germany when times got tough. How
many really know what it took to pull off the Berlin air lift. When you
look at the Axes of WWII, and after WWII when the alias rebuilt those
nations, look at how much better peoples lives were in Japan and
Germany. Were the people in Japan and Germany happier before WWII or
after WWII. Freedom is a way of life, muslims in the middle east don't
understand. Muslims in America understand, I wonder why they don't do
what Martin Luther King did, and start a Nation wide peaceful march, for
all Muslims to hear. LET FREEDOM RING!!!, Muslims of free nations, tell
the world how much happier your lives are because you are free. Let what
makes America great, embrace your way of live. Our true greatness here
in America is our diversity. Look at what our forefathers wrote, they
knew so much... The Constitution, the Bill of Rights... We the People, I
regret I have one life to give my country..., Under God..., Our flag was
still there.... These are more then words, these are ideals America was
built on. No where in these words, does it put one race or religion over
another, we are all created equal. God bless America... God bless all
who have served in the Armed Forces to protect our way of life. God
bless my Dad, George Kaufmann, fought in WWII, died in 1998. rip Kim Kaufmann Email: kkaufmann-at-gci-dot-com Chugiak, AK Wednesday, November 12, 2003 |

years myself and served with or knowing men such as Bob Howard, Roger
Donlon, Fred Zabitoky, Gary Beikirch, and George Sisler, all MOH
recipients, there is no greater pleasure than signing this guestbook.
My efforts in the MOH flag is a tribute to all MOH recipients. All
of those men and women who serve this great country of ours are all
heroes in their own ways. They are volunteers doing a job that so
many refused to do during the Vietnam era. Our country has called
and they have answered that call. "GOD BLESS THEM ALL."
They are all my heroes for they are protecting the rights and freedoms
of each and every person that walks the face of this earth. William L Kendall Email: wkendall-at-netins-dot-net Jefferson, IA Thursday, November 06, 2003 |

| I didn't know the impact of seeing
Captain Warren Leroy Anderson's name come up when I typed "Vietnam
MIA, Captain Warren L. Anderson." I still have his POW/MIA bracelet
which I wore for many years waiting for him to come home. Seeing his
name brought back the memory of the sorrow I felt when he didn't get off
the plane with the freed POWs. Seeing his virtual name rubbing on the
wall brought the same sudden grief I felt when I saw it in person. I'm
sad for Col. Anderson and his family and friends, and all of the young
men and their families and friends, and me too. I really will always
remember Capt. Warren L. Anderson and the day he went missing and his
birthday. I pray that everyone who misses him will find peace and
comfort during their lives. I will shake his hand and hug him, thank him
for the great sacrifice he made for all of us, and tell him how happy I
am to finally meet him. Thank you so very much for this website. I am
exceedingly grateful to maintain this connection to a man who became a

| Wow!! What an outstanding site! My dad was a US Marine officer in the pacific in WWII, and he was the first one to tell me about the Nisei soldiers in WWII. His first experience with them was while he was on division duty on Maui when some fights broke out between the marines of the 4th division and some recently returned members of the 100th and 442nd. The fights were pretty bad, and the marines had to get a quick education on who those doggies were. Although my dad never had very good feelings toward Japan as a result of his wartime experiences, he had tremendous respect and admiration for the Nisei and especially of their role in WWII. He told me that the Japanese were a very tough and formidable enemy. We were just really lucky to have those guys (the Nisei) on our side. WHEN IS HOLLYWOOD GOING TO TELL THIS STORY? They have made movies about just about everything else. Maybe the real story of the 442nd and the other Japanese-Americans in WWII is too hard to believe.

| I was born in 1937 and so remember
very little of the war other than fear. In 1968 I first learned
about internment camps for Japanese citizens when moving to Lovington,
NM. There I discovered the most amazing fruit and vegetable farm
and was told it was owned by a Japanese family. Puzzled, I
inquired how they came to be there. I was told there once was an
internment camp in our county and they had been transported from
California and virtually imprisoned. Surprisingly they fell in
love with the high plains and chose to stay and make their home in this
friendly and beautiful area. I was proud to be their neighbor and
they were a treasured part of our community. It was hard to
believe these events had occurred and I had never been told. How
very sorry I am this took place in the country I love. I pray that
in the future this sort of injustice will never again take place.
God bless these dear loyal people and God bless and forgive America. Marilyn Loveall Tulsa, OK Sunday, June 29, 2003 at 22:31:35 |

| Thank you for making a lasting
tribute to our veterans and soldiers now passed. My Uncle (MSgt.
USA, Retired) served with the 442 and was a recipient of the the Bronze
Star. He has since passed a few years ago in Tucson, AZ where my
father (Colonel USA, Retired) another WWII vet is now residing with my
mother. My father took part in the liberation of some of the death
camps and served as court officer in the proceeding war trials. My Uncle (Colonel USA, Retired) is a veteran of Korea (Tank Commander) and now resides in Hawaii along with another Uncle (Colonel USA, Retired) who served several tours in Vietnam (Special Forces). It means a lot to me that these brave souls not be forgotten. There was a movie (new release) made about the 442. It was supposed to have been completed but has yet to be released. It would be good to know when this will come to the big screen. Name: A, Holck Monday, June 16, 2003 at 02:32:42 |

| Hello friends, My name is Matthew Grant and I am a co-founder of an organization (along with retired Marine General Ray Davis-MOH Korea, Retired Navy pilot Captain Thomas Hudner-MOH Korea) That wants to bring the accurate account of Historical combat events to America's High School Students. We want to stress the importance of the many veteran sacrifices as a way to create an appreciation for American society. We want to give students a feeling for history through the stories of those who created it (the veterans). We also want to overcome the vast misconceptions the academic community has fostered concerning the military for nearly 50 years. To do this, we need your help. We need all of the available veterans to join our organization (FREE), and spread the word. We need educational resources and funding. Please help us tell your story in YOUR voice. Please visit our website (www.esap.org), and review our mission, beliefs, and all of the other information about our organization. Will you please help us?

citation explaining the specifics of how my friend MOH Michael J.
Novosel came to earn America's highest military honor. I was in awe with
the number of heroes that stand in the same rank as he. I was proud to
learn that several MOH recipients were Floridians just like myself. It
really doesn't matter where you were born or raised or even what service
you served in the heart of a hero beats within and expands beyond all boundaries
when the time comes to do that deed. God himself placed that man on
earth to perform that action of ultimate sacrifice, most met him soon
after to hear him say "Well done my son, well done",
while some went home to be with God some continued to march toward the
future because his creator had more for him to do on this earth. Maybe
to inspire others to care for their fellow man or to keep the torch
shining brightly so in this dark world others could follow and remember
that there is great goodness in each of us waiting for us to display it.
Medal of Honor recipient or mother of children we all have a responsibility
to set a good example and live by high morals and a strong code of
ethic. Thank you for developing such a positive place and promoting the
value of teaching our little ones that service and sacrifice are worth
more than salary and self indulgence.

At one time during the shelling and bombardment of Anzio, a piece of

carried that piece of shrapnel in her purse until the day she died, and
I now have the honor of carrying it with me. She was able to keep in touch with some of her fellow nurses in the 2nd Aux, and that bond was priceless.

searching for information about about the "bronze star" award.
My brother-in-law (who passed away on March 25, 2003) married my sister
when I was only 4 years old, so to me he was like a brother. Anyway, I
know he received a bronze star in the Vietnam war, he was in the Army
and I know he served in the war and was stationed in Japan and
Australia. My sister married him in 1970 and he never really talked
about the war, but he was very young when he enlisted and I think he
just kept everything inside him, because he never told anyone what he
got the bronze star for. Is there any way we can find out how it achieved
this medal? His two daughters are very interested, so they can share the
story with their children when they are old enough to understand. His
name was Charles Shelby Wagner and he was from Texas. Any help you can
give will be appreciated. Thank You For Any Help You Can Give. L. Saenz Email:Michaelnlori-at-ev1-dot-net Beaumont, TX (USA) Sunday, April 06, 2003 at 01:51:15 |

served in the Army from Sep 1976 to Aug 1980. I can recognize the
medal. while stationed at Fort Sill in 1977 I was on the honor
guard at the internment of a recipient. I was one of the
pallbearers and assisted in the folding of the flag at the graveside. I
have met several recipients and talked to one at a Veteran's memorial
dedication in Springfield Mo. My uncle, Tom Carson was head of the
local V.A. hospital. The Denver Post made one error that I noticed. None
of the recipients called themselves "winners" of the medal.

Charles Baldwin is my great grandfather. He served in the Navy
during the Civil War and was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor.
He was an ordinary man, was courageous in war and lived life as a hard
working family man after the war working for a living during hard times.
I am proud of him, as I am my grandfather Randolph Baldwin and my father
Joseph K. Baldwin, who were all ordinary men working for a living and
taking care of their family. Judith Marie Baldwin Email:Pezjude-at-cs-dot-com Indian Head, MD (USA) Wednesday, February 12, 2003 at 12:44:08 |

| I served as Tank Commander in Tank Company, 31st
Infantry Regiment, 7th Infantry Division. My crew and I manned a
Marine roadblock the first night we arrive at Hagaru-ri. I recall
hearing several shots from a carbine, during the night. Later on a
Marine apologized to his platoon leader for using more than one bullet
to make kill. I offered the use of my bow gun, a 30-caliber
machine gun, to the marine for use during the night. Next morning
the bow gun was returned, but none of 10 boxes of 30-cal. ammo was
returned. We chauffeured several Marines to Hungnam on the back of
my tank. Being good Marines they scrounged all the rations we were
carrying. Later on, during another campaign, we were laid up ad and Army Ordnance Depot to have the clutch replaced in the tank. The ordnance people were in no hurry since the believed out tank was added security. One afternoon a Marine walked into our tent asking "Where is the crew of 'Terry My Boy'?" We raised our hands to acknowledge our connection to the tank. He walked over to us and handed me a bottle of Seagram's VO. He said it was small thanks for the ride we gave him from Hagaru to the coast. Edward L. Parsons Email:elparsons-at-att-dot-net (USA) Saturday, January 04, 2003 at 15:08:02 |
