You all,

Candidly, I am shocked to hear the reactions of nearly everyone about the ROK soldiers serving in our units. It does not seem like the same war the guys with me fought.

We are scanning an article one of our people, then 1st Lt Lindsey P. Henderson published in the Combat Forces Journal in October, 1952. His very correct title: My ROKS Were Good. I won't say much else until we have the article for you. Simply stated, however, we kept our Koreans in a separate rifle platoon and put a handful of cracker-jack NCOs with them. The results stood out and were in marked contrast to what I've been reading from you all.

More soon.

Carl Bernard, Task Force Smith, and "Love" Company, 21st Infantry
