Capt Herman L. West Korean War . I found a book on the Korean War and there are 5 pages devoted to he and his Company. This was Sep 1950 so as a Captain the guess is 1920-25 on birthdate. He was in the 8th Army, 7th Cavalry Regiment, Company G as the Commander. If Herman is yours I can zerox pages from book for you. He was a Major at the time he gave the account to the author.
