  • Three War Soldier Shortly After Finishing High School, Eighteen-Year
    Three War Soldier Shortly after finishing high school, eighteen-year-old Guy Hector McCarey, Jr. of Walhalla enlisted in the United States Army. It was June 1943 and the world was engulfed in war from the broad expanses of the Pacific to the hot, dry fields of Sicily. McCarey, who had attended high schools in Charlotte, Walhalla and Florida, enlisted at Camp Blanding, near Jacksonville, FL and served in the European Theatre during World War II. After the war, he attended Clemson College as a veteran, serving as an ROTC cadet second lieutenant and graduating in January, 1950 with a degree in English. McCarey returned to the Army as an officer and was soon in the midst of another war, this time in Korea. Following his assignment there, he returned for a tour of duty in Germany. In 1964, McCarey was serving a peacetime tour of duty as the executive officer of the 1st Battalion, 12th Cavalry in Korea. His driver at the time was Richard Bradley. Forty-five years later, Bradley would describe McCarey as “quite a soldier…a refined gentleman…[who] was also an accomplished pianist.” Bradley remembered that after the Tonkin Bay incident in August 1964, during which North Vietnamese torpedo boats allegedly attacked the destroyer USS Maddox, “Major McCarey told me he was going to volunteer to go to Vietnam.” The Tonkin Gulf incident would lead to a massive escalation of US involvement in Vietnam, beginning with greater assistance to the South Vietnamese forces already in the field fighting North Vietnamese and Viet Cong troops. McCarey’s transfer was approved and in 1965 he was assigned to Advisory Team 70, working as senior advisor to the 1st Battalion, 7th Regiment of the Army of Vietnam’s (ARVN) 5th Infantry Division.

Allied military and other aircraft are also provided support in accordance with agreements and international protocols as appropriate. The HF-GCS is not dedicated to any service or command, but supports all authorized users on a traffic precedence basis. On June 1, 1992, the former Global HF System (GHFS) was created by consolidating other U.S. Air Force (USAF) and U.S. Navy (USN) HF networks, including the USAF Global Command and Control System (GCCS), the Navy’s Ship-to-Shore High Command (HICOM) network, and the dedicated Strategic Air Command (SAC) Giant Talk System. The goal of the merger was to develop one worldwide non-dedicated HF network capable of providing Command and Control (C2) HF communications support to all authorized DoD aircraft and ground stations. As of 1 October 2002, the former GHFS network is now known as the HF Global Communications System (HF-GCS).
