It appears that the "recall" you expect is a shell function.
Bash (prevalent on Lintel) supports up-arrow; z/OS shell doesn't
(not required by POSIX).  For z/OS, try:

    set -o vi  # then
    <esc>k     # to retrieve backward
    <esc>j     # to retrieve forward.

These are vi-like.  There's also an emacs-like form if that's
your taste.

I believe bash has also been ported to z/OS.
