[KS] Was he Korean? Ludwig Kim // CHUNG Kei-won

[Frank Hoffmann]

Alsatien? Now I learned another term.
He may have died of a simple tick bite or anything like that, because 
his health got ruined forever on March 16, 1916, by a French of German 
poison gass attack in Verdun. He was in Verdun as a medical doctor 
himself, fresh from the university into the war. 
Anyway, Kim studies are not our area of research, I suppose ;)

**********

Allow me to save some valuable bytes and combine this note with another 
earlier posting by Bill Streifer about "CHUNG Kei-won":
Coincidentally, looking for another publication of the same year by the 
Kukka Pohunch'ŏ I stumbled over this book here--and this looks like it 
could possibly provide exactly the infos he was asking for (has 
documents in both, English and Korean):

------
  Napko project of OSS: chaemi Hanindŭl ŭi choguk chŏngjin kyehoek.
  [Napko project of OSS: 재미한인들의조국정진계획.]
  [Seoul] : Kukka Pohunch'ŏ 國家報勳處, 2001.
  (773 pp.)

Amazingly enough this whole book is online (!!) --a very long URL:
