A ride to remember: Jeep brings back memories for Korean War vet
A ride to remember: Jeep brings back memories for Korean War vet Lance Shearer Don Podany recently took a ride in a 1948 Willys Jeep and had a great time. Seventy years ago, another Jeep ride didn’t go as well. Podany, 92, has lived on the Isles of Capri for 30 years, but in 1950 and ’51 he was in Korea, a corporal and a combat medic with the 24th Infantry Division of the U.S. Army. Delivering plasma to a forward aid station in the dark, without lights, his Jeep drove over a land mine in the road, which exploded and flipped over on top of him.
