To the Editor:

I would like to make an additional comment to a letter written by H.J. Magierski (“Instrumental Force,” 6/29).

I was in the Merchant Marine when the Korean War started. Instead of making the usual run to South America, our ship was chartered by the U.S. We sailed to Korea with war supplies and then shuttled between Japan and Korea. During this period we participated in the Inchon invasion as a supply ship since we had no guns.
