Jack Reissman - Korean War Engineer

Hello Marion,

 

What a nice job you have done with the Korean War pictures that I sent to you!

 

I really appreciate your'e putting them on a "slideshow".

 

The 430th Engineer Bn. has to be proud of what they did during their stay in Korea, at a time that was not too sure of how the war was going to come to an end.

 

The Korean War didn't end like the WW2 war ended, with victory for "our" side, but at least it lessened the number of guys who would die in that rugged land.

 

I can't believe how South Korea has changed from when I was there, 1951-52.

The bigger cities have buildings and roads like the USA have. And the island of

Koje Do, south of Korea, has become a resort and vacation area complete with hotels and even a McDonalds.

 

I hope that some of the Korean War veterans will respond to this web site and appreciate the great work you are doing with it, in memory of your father.

 

Thank you again and I will be sure to keep in touch with all the great work you are doing.

 

Sincerely, Jack Reissman Pittsburgh, Pa.
