LOGAN, Utah (AP)- A Korean war orphan who was "adopted"
by Utah National Guardsman from the Logan are has arrived here to
begin his education at Utah State Agricultural College.
His arrival this week ended one phase of a long
story which started in the early days of the Korean War.
Sedong Kim, 19, lost his parents in the initial
Red invasion of South Korea. Units of the Utah National Guard from
Logan, which were among the first to be sent to Korea, hired the boy
to help in the military camp site for $10 a month and his food and
lodging.
The National Guardsman at Logan decided to help
and made a community project of it.
