My source for the following list was the Belmont Veterans Officer. All deceased are included whether in training, MIA, KIA or WIA. I solicit your assistance in gathering data on these men for posting here.
I have found the Korean War Database to be woefully inadequate. However 'it's there'. For example to find the Belmont names you have to enter MA and get the list for the whole state of Massachusetts, then find their names. The 'hometown' doesn't work, except for two names because although I have posted some with Belmont as the home town, the database ignores my correction. A DNA testing program has been setup for identification. The DPMO and CILHI offices (gubmnt I guess) are working on identification of remains in North Korea. Remains returned are normally held or buried in Hawaii's 'Punchbowl'. The appropriate identifying DNA continues as long as there is a female family member arising from the mother's side. All of this is explained with sources, details, etc on the Korean War Memorial website.

You can help in the search by contacting a small group of veterans who search for family members of certain Korean War MIAs in order to acquire DNA to identify remains of US service personnel being searched for and discovered in North and South Korea.

• Jere Eugene Burns, B Co. 32nd Infantry Regt, 7th Infantry Division, Army Pfc E-3. Died hostile action while MIA, Oct. 18, 1952, DNA supplied by father, Ralph J. Burns.  In June 2002 a retired infantry colonel emailed me the following, edited by me for brevity: " I knew Jere Burns. When I returned from Korea in 1953, I met with his father and gave him information with reference to his son. I saw Jere when he was being transferred to a MASH unit from our battalion aid station. We had just returned from the major action on Triangle Hill, where we sustained many casualties. We believe that Jere was suffering battle fatigue. He was "tagged' and was being transported (to the MASH Unit) where he was never received and was considered "MIA". I know of no further information about Jere except that he was a member of "B' Company, Ist Battalion, 32d Infantry Regiment which was engaged with distinction in many actions. Jere was a fine soldier, a non commissioned officer (Corporal) and I believe was awarded the Combat Infantryman's Badge."

Korean War Database link to the 32nd Infantry Regiment of the 7th Infantry Division Association, with 'query' board also. I note Haile Selassie's Kagnew Battalion was attached, some members of which I met in my Army tour in Eritrea.
