Re: Meredith Victory, Hungnam, etc.



<PRE>Mandy, your request for info regarding Korean interaction with American food 
rang a bell. Traveling from Inchon to Wonson aboard a troop ship, I was told 
we had 600 Marines, and 1200 ROK's. The ROK's and the Marines were supposed 
to eat seperately, but we often found ourselves in the Galley at the same 
time. The Koreans had no idea what to do with our food. I saw one guy pouring 
catsup. and salt and pepper in his coffee. Another had put mustard on his 
toast. Needless to say, all during 'Operation Yo Yo" there were an awful lot 
of sick Koreans aboard that ship. Lee
