Stars and Stripes, May 18, 1956 [See
previous photo and story.]
THE CHILD was taken to the main Catholic orphanage
at Seoul where Rocke signed final papers before taking her back
to the airbase. That night in Rocke's hut, Marguerite got her first
American bath in a pastry pan-while several Leathernecks stood by
offering advice and moral support. One of them was M/Sgt. John
E. Luhta, who accompanied Rocke on the trip to Seoul to pick up
Marguerite. Luhta is now adopting a Korean boy. And at least 10
other Marines at Marine Aircraft Group-12 are planning to adopt
Korean orphans.
