ictured here are three friends and veterans with a fully restored 1943 Ford GPW “Jeep”, the vehicle that General Dwight D. Eisenhower once termed, “One of P the five keys to the Allied victory in Europe”. This particular Jeep came from Wisconsin and is owned by Captain John Dillon, USMC. The 30 caliber machine gun is non operational. From left to right are; John Darr, who served as a PFC from 1951 to 1953 as an MP at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, Gerald Fox, who served as a boatswain’s mate in the U.S. Navy with the rank of a Petty Officer 3rd Class from 1959 to 1962 and Jack Darr, who served as a Sergeant in Korea from 1950 to 1953. Jack Darr commented, “I was in Korea for ten months and one day and served with the U. S. Army 5th Regimental Combat Team. The last time I rode in one of these I was the communications Sergeant – it was cold and snowing. It was either snowing or raining in Korea it seemed like. As we drove down the road, there was a little Korean boy standing there in blue shorts and bare feet. This was in the wintertime. I’ll never forget that. I wrote a letter to my cousin John Darr who was stationed at Fort Bragg dated December 21. I can still remember where I was when I wrote that letter”. The trio were together for the Darr family reunion on Sunday, July 26. According to the families, the Darr reunion has been held for over 50 years. (Beacon photo by Mark Fortune)
