Joseph E. Sioui - 1957 Korea
12. Mama san
Korean "Mama san" that I met while walking across the rice patties.
I have a short story to share. As you recall all the bridges in Seoul were
bombed out and we had the army "Bailey Bridges" in place with one way traffic,
well one night I'm headed south with other guys from the City Seoul and one of
the guys want to drive I let him and get in the back of the 2 1/2 with the
guys, we are having a good time laughing and joking, when the truck slows down
and we feel it is climbing over something, I look and the driver had come to the
barricades and decided to drive around them I managed to get his attention in
time to stop us from a 75-foot drop into the Hahn River.
