Sisson and LCDR Neill with North Korean flag SHORTLY after the entrance of the Leyte into the Korean fray, LCDR. D. T. Neill, VF-32's skipper, had one of the most interesting experiences of his career. In difficulties because of en- gine trouble, he turned his flight over to his second in command and requested landing instructions from a cruiser near Wonsan. The cruiser directed him to land at WonsanrStrip which had been taken hours earlier by the fast moving ROK Capitol Division. Arriving there, he discovered that there was some sort of ceremony going on on the strip and that fighting was 'still very warm 100 yards north of the strip. The ceremonial party scattered when LCDR. Neill started his emergency landing but no shots were fired-at least, none hit. After the landing, LCDR. Neill discovered that he had broken up a battle decoration ceremony at which Generals Walton Walker and Earl Part- ridge were ofiiciating. The Generals were not unhappy and, in honor of his having been the first Navy man to land at Wonsan, the Korean General commanding the Capitol Division presented LCDR. Neill with two captured North Korean Battle Flags-our first trophies of war. 'VF-32 FIRST GROUP
