ers and black, semi-pointed oxfords, tie had been shot through the left i hand. and someone bad wrapped a [ blw bandage around tbe wound. I Gnats gathered about a small open sore on his arm The other member of our group l was Sgt Ted Kishishita, of Cullman. A|a. a Nisei who acts as an interpreter for the Ist Cavalry. Tbe sergeant found that Kim could not speak Japanese, so be called over a bearded south Korean • who had been picked up behind i our lines as a suspect, along with six other south Koreans The prisoner spoke In Korean, the suspect translated into Japanese. and the sergeant translated the Japanese Into English. Thus we got Kim's story. He said be was drafted May 25 In north Korea, but that In three UMMilhs he hadn't learned the numbers of his division, regiment, battalt<u> or company. He had crossed the river two nights ago. for one of the earlyi morning attacks the communists have been making on the cavalry-

men He said he bad been given 200 rounds of ammo, but bad thrown it in the river. After he got across, he said, he found the clothing he was wearing- " That's what they all say,” Cochrane said. “You see those clothes. You can’t tell those guys from tbe south Korean refugees" Kim would not say how many crossed with him, but he said tbe platoon clasped hands and forded tbe river In a human chain. Cochrane said they also had five ropes stretched across tbe river, so that those carrying machine guns on their backs could cross band over band. Kim said he was in the last year of Junior high school. One afternoon. when he was on his way home from school, a police truck came by and he was told to get In. He asked why. and was told: "you are going to join the army." Kim said he wanted to go home and tell his folks about it, but tbe army wouldn’t let him. The army, be said, gave him only two days’ training—tsught him how to shoot. "I've questioned about 80 prisoners. and practically all of them tell stories like that." Sgt. Klshlw hita said. "We picked up a welleducated north Korean guerrilla tbe other day and he said the youth of north Korea Is practically cleaned out. "Yesterday, we picked up nine prisoners. All bad been shot They said their platoon leader had shot them from the rear when they were scared to go into battle.” Need Engineers Engineers interested In civil service work at salaries of 54.800 and 55.400 may apply or obtain further Information from Robert Frisinger at the Post Office.
