Tom O. Fuller '52 is retired and living in

artillery battalion in Japan in 1953. After a few
months of intensive training, they were sent to
Korea and it took them almost a week to arrive.
"We were alerted to go to the front line. President
Eisenhower and North Korean leaders realized
that three Auburn guys would muddle up their
war, so they agreed on a cease fire effective July
27, 1953." After a few weeks, the men were sent
to perform guard duty at a POW camp near Pusan.
Tom was an officer every third day and third
night. Eventually, Tom returned to Alabama and
became off-duty but stayed in the reserves.
