South Korean labor force.  His thieves as he used to call them.  


Andy worked in a large (food) ration dump.  It was also described as a supply or issue point.  Location was Seoul, Korea 1952.  Note the Koreans in the foreground-they must be arm wrestling or scrambling over something.

Pusan, Korea   The friendlest sign ever. One is going home. 

This picture was taken by my brother, Andy, of the 8069th Replacement Bn-US Army at Pusan in December of 1952.  This depot is called a "Repple Depple", Obviously slang for a Replacement Depot.  This is where replacement troups enter and where troops being rotated home, depart.
