<P>It is rather fascinating to think that you attended the Charles Jenkins press conference in 1982. Can you recall anything he said?</P>
<P>As far as I know, 5 GIs have gone North since the end of the Korean War. Four were in the early 60s, including Jenkins. Did you ever hear anything about the others? The last was a Private Joe White in 1982, I think. White reportedly drowned in a swimming accident and his belongings were sent to his parents in the US.</P>
