Subject: 26th Infantry Scout Dog Platoon

Comments: My name is Ronald A. McKeown. In 1952 I was a dog handler in the 26th Infantry Scout Dog Platoon in Korea US56 083 361. In 1952 I was a dog handler in Korea holding the rank of Corporal. I went on 29 combat patrols, with my scout dog Champ in front of our lines, in Korea in 1952. In the
summer of 1952 an Army professional photographer took pictures of me and my scout dog Champ simulating action on Combat Patrols in Korea.

The 26th Infantry Scout Dog Platoon group I was with consisted of two squads that trained at Fort Riley/Camp Funston for 8 months from June 1951 to February 1952; then we took our trained Scout Dogs with us to Korea. The two squads were split in their geographical coverage of our front lines. I don't know if the other squad was ever assigned to the 65 Regt.

As a point of interest: A veteran of the 26th Infantry Scout Dog Platoon; Robert Fickbohm is in the process of writing a book on the 26th ISDP. He just recently started work on the book so it will be awhile. I am supplying him with the many Scout Dog action pictures that were taken of "Champ" and me in the summer of 1952 at the front in Korea. On the back of one of those pictures is printed: 9 July 52 Officers of the 7th Inf. Div. watch demonstration of scout dogs at the 26th scout dog platoon, 7th Inf. Div. Near Saemal, Korea. US Army Photo by pfc E. J. Steinberg 7th Signal Co. Photo Section

Can you assist me in finding possible references to the 26th ISDP in the many data bases of Army History Information?
Sincerely,

Ron McKeown
