Kenneth Warner and his brother Leslie Warner enlisted in the Marine Corps right out of high school. They arrived in Korea in November 1950 where he served as a radio operator for the 1st Battalion/ 1st Regiment. He was a driver for Lewis “Chesty” Puller, and he was justifiably proud to be one of Chosin Few survivors.
