WEAPONS '81' MORTAR Service or Relationship: MARINE VETERAN - KOREA Comments: These are wonderful sights. some of the names that I have read seem familiar, but they don't give me much to go on, when they don't put the year and months that they were in Korea. Its hard to go with just a first and last name. I know that not everyone has a computer. But maybe they can ask a friend or two for their e-mail address, and one could get in touch. There are a couple that I may know them, but no address. Keywords:
