General description of the collection: The Robert E. Wilson papers consist of his 2003 memoir, "War time travels 1951/1952: all this and Wellington Kansas too, a personal memoir." In his memoir, Wilson concentrates on the details of his railway travels while serving in the U.S. Army during the Korean War. He describes traveling by troop transport trains on route to basic training and to the San Francisco point of embarkation in June 1951. Wilson describes railroads in Japan and Korea by contrasting them with the railroads in the U.S. He also describes his more luxurious railroad trip in August 1952 to Fort Indiantown Gap, Pennsylvania.
