Paul, very good to hear from you and thank you. I was not on a site in Korea
with the 581st during the Korean "Police Action" from 1950 to 1953 as you were!
Your tour was 10-12 years prior to my tour in Korea. I was the site chief at
Tacoma Relay Site - 10, near Kunsan Air Base (K-8) from Feb. 1962 to March 1963.
At that time, the 581st was a RAD RLY site for the 38th ADA, EUSA. My Signal
Company HQ was at Pyong Teak (K-6). I believe it was Camp Humphries. We had a
Long Lines Company contingent of 2 enlisted military techs, and two Long Lines
(microwave) Korean Techs. I thought you would enjoy the license plate image. I
have not been able to discern the hill number of my radio site. Maybe you could
ask that on the web site. Thank you and keep in touch, if you want, and advise
me of any other input. When I was there we supported Hawk missile sites
