KOREAN WAR - Beasley; Edge; Maddox; Neal;Thomasson & Wilson

I found the following on the National Archives Web Site, in the "Online Public Access" section.

The official title is:
Records of the Office of the Secretary of Defense
Defense Casualty Analysis System
Korean War Extract Data File

I realize that the following is difficult to read, but I simply copied what I found. At the bottom there is a partial explanation of this information. I hope the following is helpful to the relatives of these six men.
