The wrestling picture is interesting and I am making an off the cuff speculations. Looks like barracks and a guard tower(way back there). The uniforms look very WWII Japanese to me. the presence of women, children & pets. maybe a Japanese military facility or prison camp?
I'm not sure about the shot with the jeep but looks to me more WWII than Korea.
Could be he was in India for WWII supported Flying Tigers, This wrestling picture is an original i always wondered.Very possibly could be North Korea prisoners, here is a larger file .
Looks like 26th Infantry Division shoulder patch. Perhaps a better shot of the shoulder patch can help identify this photo...
Sure i get tomorrow a blow up
