Re: Hill 303, Aug 15-17, 1950

I don't have any personal knowledge about it, but here
is a link to a series of web pages about the incident.
 

http://147.242.150.235/00-HISTORY/Hill-303-Yesterday-today.htm

Two of the survivors returned last year to the site
which is located just outside the perimeter fence of
Camp Carroll.

According to one of the articles on the web site, one
of the survivors, Roy Manring, Jr., loves in New
Albany, Indiana and another survivor, Frederick Ryan,
lives in Cincinnati.

Another link on the site has a copy of the prelimnary
investigation, minus the exhibits.
