Long before it was called Camp Humphreys or later, U.S. Army Garrison Humphreys, K-6 airfield south of Seoul, Korea was home to U.S. Marine Air Group 12 during the Korean War. These photos are courtesy of J.R. Boyer, a Marine who served at K-6 during the war. They give an insight in life at K-6 and in the surrounding community during that era.

World War II Veterans
World War II Veterans

From the site author: "In 2008, I started to collect the State, County, City, and Unit books that were produced during and shortly after World War Two. These books are by definition rare books, very few were printed, and after more than 75 years even fewer have survived. For this website we take each book, professional digitize the book at 600 DPI and try to add as much information as possible about each veteran using as many sources as possible. This website is constantly being worked on and I am adding about 300 people every week as well as other context therefore be sure to check back often."
