Wrecker Bulldozer 581st Signal RR Co. on Hill 1157 in Korea, 1951
(Future Beason Site)

23. Wrecked Bulldozer for Road Up to Hill 1157

After we had been on the hill for some time the engineers arrived to make a road up to the top of Hill 1157. They showed up with some bulldozers and after a few days of looking they began. They carved out a road that was one to behold. It had a few blind turns where they started to go and then changed courses. They lost one bulldozer in the effort and two men were killed. They are a part of those who gave their lives for their country.
