Thank you for letting me join this site, My Father fought in Korea, I believe he was there from 50 to 53, with the 1st Marines, he was in Baker Co. and I think he ran the heavy weapons platoon, he carried an M-1. he was from Brooklyn and had joined the Marines at 16 yrs at the end of WW2 and was called for the Korean war, Before being recalled he tried out for the Brooklyn Dodgers, but went into the Steamfitter’s Union 638, The 1st time seen the photo of him sitting on the jeep take by david Douglas Duncan, I was with my 1st Sgt. at Fort Drum, I just got called back for the Gulf war…, My 1st Sgt. was a Korean Vet seen the photo called me over and said, “Dinnigan who dose that look like?”, I told him that it looked just like my brother Jack! and said to me, No you dumb ass it looks like you!!!
