A bit more about My Friends in Korea

     I write here when the war was raging, and I was still training in the U.S.. Allow me to introduce some friends,i met these youth in the month of June 1954. All were the children of Refugee parents,or Orphans who had fled South, trying to escape the bitter battles being fought. Many hundreds of those fleeing, although dressed in civilian garb, the U.S. Forces really believed they were Chinese Soldier's attempting to infiltrate thru the defense line of United States forces) there were of course, children being carried or walking, they also were slain . Many "Mistakes"were made, Bombs made of jellied gasoline were frequently dropped on refugee columns, to halt infiltration  Refugee's paid a heavy price, as they tried to gather some food,wood and water. I would never believe that U.S.Air men would deliberately drop bombs and machine gun refugees The Peace movement,must not forget The Korean people and how they suffered,and still our Country feels they need to occupy Korea with dozens of Air Bases, and a large contingent of troops

     That long Road leading to the Peaceful Unification, and the end of the present unnatural division is close by,and The entire Korean People deserve at last the unification, before this can occur both North and South must dis-arm It is time for change. Change is Good!

     The History of Korea will record, that period, after 60 years of Occupation as a pawn in the Foreign Policy of The United States, The Korean People came together At Last! The United States gathered up their Weapons of Mass Destruction and departed.
