Red Mosley also an active Chorwon<br />

Chapter Member attended the ceremonies,<br />

but was not available for the<br />

group picture. Red was a gunner on a<br />

B-26 and on his 25th mission over<br />

North Korea on Dec. 4th 1952 his<br />

plane was shot down. He was<br />

declared MIA. After 5 days he was<br />

found but due to his wounds and<br />

cold weather he lost both legs and<br />

hands. He left the hospital in Sept.<br />

1953 with a big smile on his face and<br />

hope in his heart. Those of us that try<br />

to put down our veterans and our war<br />

should be ashamed of their actions.<br />

Red shows us why. He is a true hero<br />

and a great American. (Red was<br />

Grand Marshal of the Wayne<br />

Memorial Day Parade)<br />
