Brothers meeting in Tokyo, 1953

Two brothers meeting for the first time in two and a half years embrace each other at the 8167th Army Hospital in Tokyo. PFC Reefer Dawson (left), who is stationed at Camp Drew, Japan, was granted a pass to greet his brother, PFC David A Dawson, a recently repatriated prisoner who spent 28 months in a Chinese prison. Dawson was a member of the 5th RCT in Korea when he was captured. Both men hail from Bybee, Tenn.
