    My grandfather was a marine and served between 51 until 53. Afterwards, he met my grandma and the rest is history. He was such a kind man, and not a single eye was dry at his funeral. Whole family has served, World Wars, Korea, Vietnam, Persian Gulf, Afghanistan

      My father was born in Sindang-Dong in 1946. His father ( a district chief) and brother were taken by the North Koreans in 1950 and were tortured and interrogated and if it wasn't for the people of Sindang-Dong they wouldn't have been executed. The US military took Incheon and my dad and his family were able to escape through the port of Incheon.

      My grandfather was in Korean war in the Army as well. He did medical stuff with people who developed psychological problems in battle, and after the war took a job at a psychiatric hospital to continue doing what he could to help his brothers i guess. He passed away when i was only 7 so i never got to talk to him about his experience first hand, and sadly i really dont know much about the war he helped fight.

A few Koreans define you as invaders and swear at you, but please note that the majority are really grateful for the participation of the United States and the United Nations This trend is also in politics, and we hate them, but Korea is a politically polarized country, so there are still politicians and governments who insult the UN and participating countries If they made insulting remarks to the U.N. and the U.S., I apologize on behalf of the same Korean I'm sorry

My great-grandfather was also a Korean War veteran, he died many years ago when I was a baby, but now I'm trying to join the Army when I become an adult after only a few years because I'm a just teenager for now. to follow what my great-grandfather did, fighting against communism and defending my fatherland.

    My Dad in his 90’s still talks about how his Cousin Kirby Foley who he was closer to than his own brother (same age) was drafted straight out from a holler in south West Virginia mountains into this war. Having never left the immediate area Kirby died way out there he was only 19 years old.
    So many Americans over so many years have given their all in the blossom of their lives.
    Dad enlisted in the navy - he figured it was better than being drafted into the army.

    While my grandfather was not in Korea, he served in the army during the war in Puerto Rico from 56 to 58. Once he came back to his wife, she had my father almost 3 years later. If he had been in Korea I probably wouldn’t exist. He was in the US Army Signal Corps as a communications specialist, he told me he snorkeled around Guantanamo Bay and worked on the planes in San Juan. He lived long enough to see a slimmer of hope a few years ago between North Korea and South Korea thanks to a certain president who I won’t name. I thought the war would finally be over. But unfortunately that wasn’t the case. He died about a year ago and there wasn’t a dry tear from me at all. I wasn’t the best grandson, but I know he always loved me and I will always remember him. I will do everything in my power to see that the war actually comes to an end. Tom S Corporal third class April 1956 to March 1958.
