“I saw both oceans and the Gulf of Mexico in the service,” Bell recalled. He shipped out from New York harbor, down the eastern seaboard and eventually through the Panama Canal before stops in Hawaii and Yokohama, Japan, and finally to an Army base south of Seoul, South Korea. He spent about nine
months in Korea. “It might have been longer, but it took us so long to get there,” he said with a chuckle. There, Bell was a corporal whose outfit manned .50 caliber and 40 millimeter antiaircraft guns. There was only one instance of trouble, Bell recalled, when they could hear a potential enemy plane flying overhead.

ICE arrests 16 illegal immigrants WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — Immigration officials arrested 16 illegal immigrants during a three-day sweep across Kansas targeting criminals and fugitives. The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said Friday the arrests occurred in Wichita and surrounding communities and in Liberal and Dodge City. Fourteen of the immigrants were from Mexico, with one each from Guatemala and El Salvador. The agency said 11 of the men had prior convictions
for crimes such as aggravated assault, aggravated battery, identity theft and domestic battery. Three were immigration fugitives who failed to leave the country as ordered. Two had re-entered the U.S. illegally after being previously deported. ICE field office director Ricardo Wong said in a news release that such targeted enforcement operations focus resources on the most egregious offenders. The operation concluded Thursday.
“I was supposed to be in charge, but I wanted to fire the .50 caliber,” he said. Bell was armed and ready to fire, but nobody could find the aircraft before it left the area. “l never fired a shot,” he said. “You’ve gotta see it before you could shoot it.” He also crossed paths with younger brother, Roy, who also was stationed in Korea.

Bell returned home in October 1953. He paid one last visit to the Korean peninsula with his late son, David, in 1996. The Honor Flight was a memorable experience, Bell said. “When we arrived at Baltimore, there were about 100 people waiting for us at the airport,” he said. “They all started applauding. It was quite a sight.”

ager, Jim Halsey, is an Independence native. Allen noted one of their earliest performances was on a trailer bed during Independence’s Neewollah celebration, not unlike a similar performance by the late Roy Clark — another Halsey client — had done previously. “If it was good enough for Roy Clark, it was good enough for us,” Allen said. “It was kind of remarkable our paths sort of followed his after that, too.” Veterans Day celebrations are poignant and powerful for Allen and his bandmates. “We have a theater in Branson, where they celebrate Veterans Day unlike anywhere else,” he
said. “Veterans Day lasts a week there.” As a testament to Allen’s showmanship and friendliness, he politely declined when asked by a Register reporter for a photo. Wearing only a T-shirt and sweat pants, it was understandable. He, too, had been rousted from what was supposed to be a relaxing trip to Emporia because of the engine troubles. Then a nearby motorcycle caught his eye. “It’s so windy, this may look right,” Allen said as he carefully climbed aboard the motorcycle to pose for the accompanying photo, while goodnaturedly pointing to the broken-down bus.
