Herb Davis was born in Jersey County, Illinois, in 1930 and grew up on the family farm. He was drafted in January 1952 and sent to Fort Sill, Oklahoma, to train for the artillery. He was shipped to Korea after training, and joined an artillery battalion, probably the 555th Field Artillery, which was attached to the 5th Regimental Combat Team, near the DMZ. Once he joined the unit in the summer of 1952, the front was fairly stable, but both sides regularly bombarded one another in that sector. His job was to repair communications lines between the forward observation posts at the front and the batteries in the battalion. He did this until the armistice a year later, after which he sometimes rotated onto guard duty on the front lines, as there was no more work to do as a lineman once the artillery was no longer firing or being fired upon.
