1:59pm 01-12-2019 Elman Becker: Hi- I served in the 6th Battalion 12th artilary at Camp ST Barbara. I was a message center clerk at Battalion headquarters for half of my tour and a Redeye missile gunner the last half. Walked the DMZ on patrol. I was at the camp all of 1969 and part of 1970. I would like to here from anyone who served during that time. Some of the people I remember (names) are: Henry Stecdman, Steve Hylton, Wes Meyer, McShane, Rick Morgan and Richard Lehn. I also found many more of you that served at the time in my 1969-70 annual. My email is elman49@arvig.net, address 49781 Royal Pine RD, Perham, MN 56573 and cell number 218-298-0501.

5:51pm 01-08-2019 Kenneth R Wells: I used to have lots of pictures from Camp St. Barbara but don't know what happened to them. I was a pll clerk in the motor pool which was closer to the gate. My sergeant was Jerry Stackhouse. There was a mechanic with the last name of Nowling. I had a Korean driver named Sgt. Moo and we would pick up parts about once a week for the motor pool . He seemed to take a lot of short cuts off the main road and once we turned our three quarter ton truck over. Fortunately he spotted a ROK troop and summoned help getting it back on the road. We were lucky that there wasn't any apparent damage. The pll clerk before me was a black guy named Miller from the Detroit area. My tour there was from Jan 1968 - April 1969. I had been in small arms infantry at Fort Ord California but ended up in a motor pool in Camp Santa Barbara in an Artillery unit. I suspect that the North Korea capture of the US Pueblo may have led to more infantry being diverted and I was one of the lucky ones.

2:44am 12-16-2018 Ben Rilk: 598th TC, stationed at Ingrandes, France from Nov 62 to Nov 63 when the 598th was transferred to Kassel, Germany. I spent the next two years in Kassel, and returned to the states at the end of December 65. After a few years I reenlisted in the Army Reserve {Petroleum Supply}, and in 78, I switched to the National Guard (Military Intelligence). With the MI I spent a lot of time in Germany again. I stayed in the MI until my retirement in 2000.

7:20pm 12-01-2018 Sp/4. Morris: UI was assigned Hq Co, Survey section. March 68 and stayed until June of 68 when ,as assigned as access personel, I and perhaps two duce and a halfs worth of men , were transfered to the 7th ID .
I do remember a Sargent Gutierrez , and two sargents 1 e7 and 1 e6.
2 sp5,s... Smitt and Hanson.
One night a patrol in the yamas North of us,a man had broken his leg.The flare ignited a goodly fire in the mountian. Old , badly out of shape , Sargent Gutierrez (40 -42), was ordered by the CO to lead a detail to fight the fire. He must have pissed off the CO and this was his punishment.
I aslo remember the wonderful mess hall with the baked goods every day.
The barracks were made of brick and had forced air heating and I think air conditioning.

I aslo remember a tall Black man in the same survey section, last name Banks, who saved me one night from leting loose my rage on a guy named Beck, who had challenged me to a fight.
Poor Mr. Beck was severly beaten and would have recieved more, had it not been for Bank's very wise intervention. Thus saving me from a possible court .martial.
Although some excess personnel stay on, the next day I was called out of formation and I was choosen for reassignment.
My self , I went to the 2/8 artillery assigned to the liaison section,eventually to accompany the Division's FO to all of our battalion's fire missions ( into all the ranges ) and he called missions for other battalions as well.
