I am trying to find anyone I served with in the 4th Signal Battalion (known as the Bell Telephone of
North Korea). The 4th Signal Battalion was assigned to support the 7th Infantry Division and the 1st
Marine Division in various signal operations from the Inchon Landing in 1950 through the Hungnam
evacuation.

I am trying to locate Sgt. Robert “Pancho” Garcia. In 1954, Sgt. Garcia was most likely with the 321st
Signal Battalion and would normally hang around a place called the "Green Shack" near Kelly Barracks
around Stuttgart, Germany. He had friends in the 34th Signal Battalion, which was the unit that was
replaced by the 321st Signal, among them Norman Kummer from New York. His 1st Cavalry patch indicates that
he had served in Korea or Japan before being stationed in Germany. I believe that Sergeant Garcia was
Puerto Rican, however, he was fluent in English (and Spanish) and often spoke of Texas, so he may have
been Mexican-American. Sergeant Garcia should be around 80 years old now. If anyone knows Mister Garcia or
any members of his family, please tell them to get in touch with me, Tony (The Marine) Santiago, here in
“Somos Primos” or by my e-mail NMB2418@aol.com.
