2d Div. St. Nicks Give Korean Tots Taste Of Christmas
WITH U.S. 2D DIV., Oct. 5 - The Korean orphans of
the 2d Division sponsored Friendship Home got a little taste of what
Christmas is like recently when four soldiers of the 9th
Regiment paid them a surprise visit. The Indian head warriors brought
along candy, washcloths, toothpaste, toothbrushes, and soap for the
children.
THE FOUR St. Nicks were: SFC Charles Sherer, Jasper, Ala.;
PFC John Honkawich, N.Y.; Cpl. Boris Snider, Sunnyside, N.Y., and PFC
John Witty, Jackson, Minn.
After their visit with the children, the soldiers inspected
the nearly completed house being constructed for the resident doctor
and the foundation, for the new home which should be completed by Thanksgiving.
