Chinese Nationalist Involvement

[MGH & HJM <bailey@e-scape.net>]

Here's something that may swing the string, so to speak. I've heard of
Japanese involvement in the Korean War, but only the suggestion of involving
Chinese Nationalist Forces (MacArthur et al). A fellow today that I contacted
said he was a marine assigned to guard a top secret Chinese Nationalist
intelligence installation. Anyone have any insight into this? Email text of
our correspondence below:

I was detached to the Nationalist Chinese Army who ran an
intelligence operation.  The Nationalists were not supposed
to be involved in the Korean War and therefore the State
Department refuses to release any information on these
operations.  If the Communists knew about these goings on
they may have invaded Taiwan and therefore the secrecy and
still are very sensitive about it.  My duties were to
provide them with food, water, supplies and protection at
their top secret mountain top location.  The Chinese were
virtual prisoners there and never allowed to leave during
their tour.  There were about 40 ranking from colonel and
above.   My orders were to kill anyone, including friends,
trying to approach the compound.  Obviously the Communists
knew about the location but probably did not know who was
there.  There were huge short-wave radio dipoles that were
impossible to hide.  I have been trying to get information
about it myself and can't get anything but denials.  There
was one other location in the Far East manned by US Army
personnel and one in Turkey.  I don't know who worked in
Turkey but know the Air Force had critical weather stations
which likely covered both.  It was known as Communication
Relay Station, Armed Forces, Far East Command.  We had a
jeep, a weapons carrier, and conspicuous new white Ford
station wagon which I opted never to drive.  Two Marines
rotated on site while the other ran supplies and errands.
The post was created by MacArthur around 1947 or 1948.
Marines served about one year with combat pay, commuted
rations, clothing and housing allowances before being sent
home.  We carried orders signed by MacArthur stating that
our speedometers were to be disconnected, no records were
to be kept of our movements and we were not to be detained
under any circumstances.  The orders stated we could draw
any amount of supplies and weapons from any source on
demand.  If you get more information I would like to know.
If you have connections with Taiwan you may be able to get
some historical data from them.  I tried and all I could
get was a medal for my service to them.
