Stars and Stripes, Jan. 11, 1953

BEFORE AND AFTER

Cpl. James Settlemire, Craford, N.J., was disheartened by the Korean children he saw in tattered, ragged clothes, and wrote about it to his sister-in-law, Mrs. William Black, Winston-Sales, N.C.  Then Settlemire moved up to the front. 

While he was there a Christmas package with a suit for a youngster came from Mrs. Black.  Settlemire asked George Sweers, an Associated Press photographer, to give the suit to a deserving child - and Sweers found one on the streets of Seoul.  Now little Kim wears Settlemire's clothes, (above) but the smile is Kim's own.  (AP Photo by George Sweers)
