Re: The KW List



Hello Ed & John:
 
Just joined the list and y'all were the first in the email box.  John--were you in any way affiliated with CCRAK?  If so, did you know or ever hear of 1Lt A. W. C. Naylor-Foote, USA; MSgt David "Snake" Harrison, USA; or Lt. Leo Adams-Acton, British Army?

Ed:
     I'm gratified to learn that there are still some "old folks" around, who are interested in the "forgotten war". I have already been rewarded by the all too brief mentions of some of the covert ops & orgs, which I encountered, during my yrs in Asia. I'm particularly interested  in any experiences which the list members may have had, involving the collection of foreign weapons & equipment, by Technical Inelligence personnel of the various Army technical services. I'm attempting to compile a history of technical inelligence activities in the US military services. Bio: John C Baker, LTC, Ord Corps, AUS, Retired. US Army-May, 51-May, 71. 17 yrs service in Tech Intel units, including 3 yrs with the Combined Materiel Exploitation Center. MACV. Col Glenn Muggelberg, Coll Div, J2, MACV, mentioned running CCRAK/CCRAFE OPS, during the KW. I would guess that he was CPT/MAJ. One of his assistants was G W Ness, who was probably a 1 LT. In 53-54, in Korea, the Ord TI Dets had 2 jeeps for 6 men. We observed 3/4 & 2 1/2 ton trks, w/ our bumper markings, during our travels. Discreet inquiry disclosed that the larger vehs belonged to one of the CCRAK elements. Best regards, John
