Mar 25, 1951 #KoreanWar NYT General of the Army Douglas MacArthur and official Washington were feuding again today. Source of the trouble this time was General MacArthur's truce offer yesterday to the Chinese Communists. Washington's complaint: it wasn't consulted.

Watercolor painting of a middle aged black man in front of a school house chalkboard in a sweater vest and polkadot fly collar shirt with an afro and side burns.
When the southern school systems integrated, students of all races, for the first time, had teachers of a different race. Young white boys (like me) were now taught by black men we had been taught were inferior. My first male teacher was a #Koreanwar/ #Vietnamwar #veteran and a hero of mine forever

#KoreanWar #Korea Oddly taken by this shot from my Dad's lot of pics he took while rigging helicopters in Marine Corps in the Korean War. Two Korean men. I watch so many Korean shows both on Netflix & queer asian venues & it struck me that these guys might be grandfathers of actors I watch now.

During the #KoreanWar (1950-1953), approximately 37,000 #Americans were killed defending #democracy in #SouthKorea from invasion by #NorthKorea - supported by the #SovietUnion and #China with weapons and ‘boots on the ground’.
Yet as the #UnitedStates prepares to ‘celebrate’ our 250th […]

I have a small personal interest in the fact that, on #ThisDayInHistory in 2006, the last Mobile Army Surgical Hospital (#MASH unit) was decommissioned. I grew up watching the teevee series set during the #KoreanWar (when these units were first used) with my veteran grandfather.
#OTD On 13 Feb 1951, the Battle of Chipyong-ni began. The U.S. 23rd Infantry Regiment and French Battalion held their position against over 20,000 Chinese troops for four days, stopping China’s advance and enabling a UN counteroffensive.

The #KoreanWar, like the later #VietnamWar, propped up unpopular dictatorships and were often waged against civilians. On #ThisDayInHistory in 1951, the #SancheongHamyangMassacre by the #SouthKorean army took 705 South Korean lives, all unarmed, and 85% of them women & children.
