listed in the book I happened across. If you can research this and get him included it would be great.

Excellent web page. I served 6 years in the USMC and it is good to see that you too have so much pride. It was the best thing I have done in my life and I am grateful to have participated in serving my country. I have a web page as well. It is a milita
y modelling web site for anyone who is interested in preserving military history. I have added a chat room and a message board so that all who visit it can exchange ideas, reference material or just get to know others who are interested in modelling or m
litary history.
Regards,
Anthony

Earlier this year, my father fell to a stroke which left him speechless. I vaguely remember what regiment he said he was in but I do recall I believe the wing over fire. I believe he jumped in Korea for the 187th. I was hoping to find something on him.
I might be able to send you a few photos next time I am over his way. He was wounded in combat and received a purple heart. I remember just a few stories, but they will stay with me forever. I will continue to look for any information I might find and
hope to return to this site. Thank you, sincerely, Jeff VerDuin

Dear Sir,
I would like you to know you have a great website here. My husband, LTC Dennis L. Gum was with the 101st 3/187 from 1974-77. He is still very proud of this honor and I am prouder of him still. We now live in Palmer, Alaska. Denny is now in
the Reseves and is also an Anchorage Police Officer. While looking through the Daily News I saw in the obits where a fellow "Rakkasan" had passed away on Feb. 4th, 1999. So I thought you would like to know so you could pass it on. There may be the chance
omeone looking at your website might have known him. His name was John James Liska. He served 23 years in the U.S. Army . He also served during WWll, the Korean conflict and during the Vietnam era. He was also a charter and life member of the 187th Airbor
e Regimental Combat Team known as the "Rakkasans". Mr. Liskas funeral will be at 1300 hrs. on Tuesday, the 9th of Feb., at Fort Richardson's Main Post Chapel. Burial with full military honors will follow at Ft. Richardson National Cemetary here at Ft. Ri
h., Alaska. His widow is Mrs. Dorothy Liska of Eagle River, Alaska. In lieu of flowers, donations may be sent to the Chugiak Volunteer Fire and Rescue, P.O. Box 363, Chugiak, Ak. 99567.
Anyway, sorry for writing all this but I thought you would like to have some info. Please e-mail me in return if possible. Thank-you .
Sincerly, Mrs. R. Gum

I left the 2/187th Airborne from Ft. Kobbe, Panama in 1987, and I was the last paratrooper to ETS with the last of the original red, white, and blue 187 flashes on my beret,for as I left an hour later the last of the airborne rakkasans or us, were disband
d and made part of the 505th and all insignias were changed. So I guess that would make me the last airborne rakkasan. If any one would like to contact me for any reason or just this one feel free to do so, as always ,AIRBORNE ALL THE WAY!

WELL ITS BEEN SIX YEARS SINCE I LAST SALUTED ANOTHER RAKKASAN AND FELT THE PRIDE AND DISCIPLE THAT WE DEVELOPED TOGETHER. I HAVE YET TO SERVE WITH ANOTHER UNIT THAT COULD MATCH THE RAKKASAN MOTIVATION. AND MY ONLY WISH IS THAT I WAS TEN YEARS YOUNGER AND
OULD DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN!

This is a very nice web sight. My Uncle in Law was a member of your group, and his wife my aunt still see friends and goes to meetings.
I am a video producer and am living in Korea right now, and am looking for where William Fogie was wounded, and for the man who pulled him from harms way, he looked all his life, and I thought I would keep looking for him.
If I find out I am sure he will know.

Chris, you are off to a great start keep up the good work and you will have a site all "RAKKASAN" and fellow Paratroopers will be proud of.
The "Paratroopers of the 50's" wish you well For the "RAKKASAN" were a big part of that era and for that matter our site!!
