I was assigned to Hq. & Hq. Co. in November 1960 as a PFC where I was a Staff Writer for the weekly 7TH Infantry Division "BAYONET" Newspaper until March 1961 at which time I was transferred to north to Camp Kaiser.

There, I functioned as what amounted to the Camp Kaiser Bureau Chief of the "BAYONET" Newspaper Until I rotated back to the U.S. in February 1962. My Korean tour was extended for 60 days due to the Berlin Wall Crisis.

I produced several articles about events soldiers and units, that were published in the Bayonet, Pacific Stars & Stripes and the Army Times newspapers. A couple of feature stories were were even picked up by the wire services and published in the U.S. and Europe.

There many occasions during my stay at Camp Kaiser when we went on Red Alert until North Korean Army Infiltrators that had crossed the DMZ were captured by U.S. Army, Thai Army Turkish Army and/or ROK units.

I worked long and hard to recreate the the two pictures at the head of your page.They were scanned from my yearbook from my tour at camp Casey 1962-1963 with the 17th Trans Battalion. I am so happy that you used them. I now winter in Florida where I was able to finds hats with the 7th Infantry hourglass logo, and a U.S.Army transportation theme. I am a past member of the 7th Infantry Division and have wonderful memories of my time in Korea. Thank you for keeping the web page alive.

Stationed at Camp Casey from May 1965 until July 1966. I played the trumpet in the band and also drove an Isuzu bus to most of the other camps near the DMZ, wherever the band was booked. I can't tell you how many times I drove through the Chinese Tunnel on the back road to Camp Kaiser.

I was stationed at Camp Casey 1972-1973, assinged to the 2nd S&T Bn A CO. The BN was located behind the airfield. My MOS was 13B but because I had truck driving experiance was assinged to the S&T Bn, drove a 5 ton tractor hauling fuel from the railhead which was just north of the ROC compound to the Fuel depot which was north of that. There was a pipeline that went from the railhead to the fuel depot but couldnt use it because the Koreans had so many taps on it that if we ran 5000 gal from the railhead only about 4000 gal made it to the depot.

I was stationed in Rothwesten as a drafted Spec, 4 Radio Teletype Operator in the 319 ASA Battalion from January 1971 until August 1971 when we moved the whole Battalion to Augsburg and turned Rothwesten over to the Germans (our NATO Allies). Nice to read the history of the place. The current photos as an abandoned base are hard to look at. But there are some good photos of the base as I remember it of the swimming pool, the old main guard house that I used to watch as a Unit Policeman, and the old Dusseldorfer Hof. Thanks.

I was stationed in Camp Kaiser, Korea, from 1959 to 1961 as a
MD Army Capitain.
Trying to get my honorable discharged documents from the archives in St. Louis and I have been told they burned and can't find my information.
Does anyone have an idea how to retrive this information?
Tried for years now w/o success.
