Notes for P
AUL RAY MARTIN:
Paul R. Martin grew up in Tobaccoville, NC, where he remembers a very happy childhood. Rolling a wheel and guiding it with a stiff wire could whittle away the hours of a long summer afternoon. But he soon grew up and had to help work on the farm. His father had died about a month before Paul was nine years old and he has fond memories of his father as he sat in the warmth of his lap in the mornings listening to his mother prepare breakfast. He recalls in the evenings when his father would pop corn over the flames in the fireplace. He was already married with two children when his mother died, but his feeling of loss was very great. She had carried the role of both parents in his life for so many years.

When Paul left home to find a job, he chose his occupation due to availability and stayed with his job at Western Electric until he retired thirty-five years later. On June 25, 1950, for reasons that were never made clear, North Korea attacked South Korea and the world changed. Paul was drafted into the army on 25 Oct 1950. He left Tobaccoville for Fort Jackson, SC, was processed into the Army there and ten days later was sent to Camp Polk, LA on a troop train. He took basic training at Camp Polk, LA and by 1 Apr 1951 the Thunderbirds were on the high seas - destination Hokkaido, Japan. The convoy moved across the Gulf of Mexico into the Caribbean and through the Panama Canal. From the Canal Zone, some ships struck directly across the Pacific, while others, like the "General William Wiegle", swung north, stopping briefly at San Francisco. Paul was on this ship. After landing at Muroran on Hokkaido, the cold, northermost island of Japan, the 45th Division was moved by train to Chitose and Camp Crawford. Here in Camp Crawford Paul and his buddies were put through an intense training program. By fall, winter camps were completed and the Thunderbirds moved out of the tents and into buildings erected at Chitose. The Division completed its regular cycle of combat training and undertook an intensified program of exercises in landing, air transport and small arms fire. With completion of this phase of training, Paul and his buddies were given short leaves. Noboriebetsu, Japan was a popular site for relaxation and rest and Paul has some great memories of leave time spent there. In November, the Division was ordered to Korea. As each unit moved up, it received cold weather instructions, advice from the outgoing troops and then "faced the front" in freezing cold weather under clear skies. On 22 Dec 1951, Paul left Hokkaido, Japan for Korea, arriving on 30 Dec 1951, landing at Inchon. He traveled to the front line on an old train that had all the windows shot out. The temperature was 20 degrees below zero. He stayed in Korea, serving as a Sergeant in the Medical Detachment of the 45th Division, 120th Combat Engineers Battallion as a medic until 10 Jul 1952, when he left for Sasebo, Japan. He left Sasebo, Japan on the "General Black" landing in San Francisco, CA at the end of Jul 1952. The guys were met by the ever loyal Red Cross with coffee, doughnuts and off in the distance, out of sight and hearing was Betty Hutton to entertain the returning troops. In 1989, Paul organized a reunion of some of the men he served with in Korea. They had not seen each other for about 37 years and yet their conversations began on the same note as when they last spoke. And, although the Korean War was known as "the forgotten war" they shared memories that only they could understand. Our country lost over 36,500 men in that war, how can it be forgotten?

Paul flew from there to Fort Jackson,SC, took a thirty day leave, came home and bought a new 1952 Ford. He received his separation papers on 25 Sep 1952. In October of 1952, Paul returned to work at Western Electric Company in Winston-Salem, NC. It was here he met his wife, Jo. They met in January of 1954 and were married 30 Apr 1954 in York, SC. Paul and Jo began saving and planning to build a home and in July of 1959 they moved with their two children into a new home at 4965 Hauser Drive in Pfafftown, NC. Paul retired from Western Electric Company in 1982 and that summer he and Jo took a trip to Hawaii. After Jo retired they spent the next nine years traveling all over the US and Canada. In September of 1993, Paul suffered a stroke. Thankfully, he had a remarkable physical recovery but had some memory loss. Later, he developed Alzheimer Disease and died from this on Monday, July 3, 2006 in Boise, ID.

BOISE, Idaho - Paul R. Martin, passed away Monday, July 3, 2006, in Boise, Idaho. He was born Jan. 9, 1928, in Tobaccoville, N.C., to William R. and Eliza Long Martin. Paul was a veteran of the Korean War, serving as a sergeant in the medical detachment of the 45th Division, 120th Combat Engineers Battalion from October 1950 to September 1952. He returned to his job at Western Electric and retired from there in 1982 with 35 years of service. After his retirement, he loved planning and attending annual reunions for a small group of his Korean buddies and their wives. Paul was a Christian by faith, a very kind and generous man who loved his family dearly. He will be sorely missed by all who knew him. He is survived by his wife, Mary Jo Jackson Martin; his daughter, Teri Lyn Dove of Southport; his son and daughter-in-law, Gordon and Victoria Martin of Boise, Idaho; a granddaughter, Christine and husband Nick Paskett; a great- granddaughter Ashton Jade Paskett of Boise, Idaho; a sister, Eva Johnson of East Bend, N.C.; a brother, Roy W. Martin of Winston-Salem, N.C.; and many nieces and nephews. Paul was preceded in death by his parents; two brothers, Arthur Martin and Grady E. Martin; and three sisters, Della Martin Shamel, Alice Martin George and Beulah Martin Shore. A memorial service to celebrate the life of Paul will be held at 6 p.m. today, July 9, at Vogler & Sons Reynolda Road Chapel. The family will receive friends following the service until 9 p.m. The family suggests that memorials be made to any charity of the donor's choice.
