After joining the <strong>Korean</strong> <strong>War</strong> <strong>Veterans</strong> <strong>Association</strong> and<br />

getting my issue of The Greybeards, I saw a few of my<br />

old buddies I knew while I was in Korea.<br />

I was with the 7th Division, 31st Regiment, I Co. After<br />

54 years I came across John “Waco Chile” Chiles and<br />

went to Waco, TX to pay him a visit. (See the photo<br />
