General Dean Finds Retirement Active By JOHN STAFFORD Mail Tribune Staff Writer How docs a man who has spent more than 30 years serving his country find re tirement? Maj. Gen. William F. Dean finds it active and stimulating. He was in Med ford Friday, serving as mar shal of Veteran's day parade. Dean is a veteran of two wars. He served in World War II and the Korean con flict. He achieved world fame for his courage and stamina while enduring a three -year imprisonment by the North Korea and Chinese Communists in the Korean War. He was captured in 1950 and released in 1953. In 1954 Dean wrote a series of articles for a national magazine telling of his exper iences as a prisoner of war. The articles described the or deals he went through.

They are gray, probably not so much from his 61 years, as from his horrible ordeal in Korea. , However, in talking with Dean, the impression is given that here is a man who really appreciates and knows how fortunate he is to be here. Dean and his wife, Mildred. live in Berkeley, Calif. He retired from the Army five years ago. Since then, his schedule has been vigorous. "Almost as vigorous as when I was in the service," he says. i spend a great deal of time traveling all over the U.S. speaking to good will and charity groups," he says. Son in Air Force He also has a son who is In the Air Force in Texas. "Speakers for Air Force graduation ceremonies are scarce, so once in a while my son comes to California in a jet, picks me up and takes me to Texas to address the graduates," Dean related. He is also in great demand by the Army for personal ap pearances at Army posts throughout the country. "I never get everything ac complished in a day that I want to," he says. Somehow, one gets the im pression that he is a man who wants to make up for three years lost time in helping humanity.

General Prentice said Ser geant Santo exposed himself to the enemy at San Manuel in order to draw fire away from members of his platoon on Jan. 24, 1945.

In his address General Dean, himself a prisoner of the Communists for three years in the Korean war, said that "many unthinking Am ericans" no longer feel there is a need for soldiers. They think ballistic missiles are enough because the next war will be decided in seconds, he said. But, "this is what the Com munists would like us to think and they would like us to pre pare accordingly," the general said. "This enemy of ours only respects strength and if ws are to retain peace in this world we must indicate and prove we are strong," he as. serted. The presence of U.
