November and Dec 1950 500,000 or 250,000 (depending on who you believe) Chinese surrounded, captured, and annihilated many American Soldiers and Marines in Northern Korea. Americans fought their way out in 60 degree below zero weather frozen hands, feet, ears. Bloody wound froze solid.
The Korean people to to this day, I know of no other nation, loves the USA and the men and boys that saved their nation. I was walking in a local Walmart with my Korean War hat on and a young Korean man, wife and his kids stopped me and thanked me for 20 minutes--his American kids too. The Koreans offer free trips to South Korea of old vets. Samsung gives millions for the Korean War Monument and it's upkeep. They offer almost 400,000 a year in scholarships for the grand kids of Korean vets. (Per the American Legion Magazine)
Some nations are grateful.
I though this O.T> important enough to share with my fellow Boneyarder and Vets.
Thank you for allowing me to do this.
