John Boyd was called up to join the Army as a Signal Officer for the 28th British Commonwealth Brigade and arrived in Korea in October 1952. During his one-year deployment, his Brigade fought to maintain the Jamestown Line which was a strategic set of land from Kimpo and the Yellow Sea to Kumhwa and Seoul. In his work, John used a variety of machines to maintain communication including Morse Code, superheterodyne receiver (radio receiver), and a 19 set.
