Kronenberger is a member at American Legion Post 8 in Clifton.
Fort Dix in New Jersey and then eight more weeks of specialized training at Brooke Army Medical Center at Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio, Texas.
After a four day train ride to California, Kronenberger was shipped out to Korea in 1951. In addition to treating victims of frost bite, he also pulled guard duty in Busan and worked in a medical warehouse. Busan was one of the few areas in the country that remained under South Korean control during the war and at one time, it served as a temporary capital of the Republic of Korea. United Nations troops created a defensive perimeter around the city known as the Pusan Perimeter in the summer and fall of 1950. Following 18 months in Korea, Kronenberger was discharged in 1953 and returned to his job at the Paper Box. He later took advantage of the G.I. Bill and attended St. Peter’s College in Jersey City before transferring to the old Seton Hall cam-
pus in Paterson. The veteran graduated in 1958. Richard Kronenberger, 79, is a member of American Legion Post 8 and currently lives on West First St. with his wife of 50 years, Dorothy Theresa. They have two children.
