My dad served with 3rd Infantry over there. He never spoke of it until I had served in the Army. 11 men in his platoon were captured by the Chinese. He was a PFC at that time. A 1st Lt. was asking for volunteers for a rescue mission. I asked him why he volunteered, his answer was because I know they would come rescue me. He got the Bronze Star with Valor and the Lt. got a Silver Star. All 11 men rescued. RIP Dad....
I spent two Christmas’ ,1965 and 1966, on top of a mountain 60 miles south of Seoul. I remember the days when I was the last to eat but there was no food. Just coffee. Breakfast the next day was a great treat. God Bless our troops that have to spend their Holidays in foreign lands.
My father was there 1951-52 as Recon and he was murdered by a punk thief in 1962, Feb 17th. Thank you for acknowledging the service and sacrifice paid by the world and our American families to protect/preserve South Korea as a free Nation.
Thanx 4 the allied(un)effort in stopping communism.Outcome wasn't the same in vietnam,but the us servicemen did their best considering the political situation.My uncle was kia in vietnam near pleiku central highlands mid3/68 tail end of tet.He was w the 1st cav.
Maybe your father shouldn’t have invaded a country that most Americans can’t even point out on a map. The US is the biggest punk thief on the planet. 🤡
@@hugbug4408 some fine men were killed because of political decisions. some soldiers probably would have been friends with their enemy at the time under different circumstances.
My dad volunteered to serve with the 187th Airborne Regimental Combat Team in Korea making combat jumps at Sukchon and Munsan-Ni. He went on to seve three tours of Vietnam. I sat with him in his final hours and will NEVER forget how black his feet were. Frostbite in Korea.
3 tours in nam w a handicap of frostbitten feet?He's lucky he didn't hav them amputated.Wow! I had talk 2 sum vets who sed it was forbiddenly cold in korea.Korean soldiers were of same mold of ww2 soldiers.Tuff ass dudes!
@@hugbug4408 Thank you so much. He was the nicest man in the world. He really was......until he wasn't. He retired as Command Sergeant Major in 1975. In Vietnam he was at the Battles for the IA Drang Valley in 1965, Dong Ha during 7/68-7/69, Camp Eagle Fall 1971 and Bien Hoa as 1st Sergeant of the Cavs H Company Rangers during the Spring of 1972. I'm serious about his genuine kind nature. But one would have been well advised not to mistake it for a weakness of any sort. He had a mind like a steel trap and didn't put up with any bullshit. So yeah, those guys were a different breed.
My uncle was killed 3 of sept 1950 in korea and we just now got his body back and buried him next to my grandpa in cincinnati memorial day 2017 his story is on you tube kotean war vet returns after 66 yrs.
@Bob Smithereens illegal china was invading a country that's about a good as reason to fight them you hippy pos the communist killed millions of people making Hitler just look like a street gangster compared to that of the communist party. fucking hippies think you'll are so much better then everyone else but that man had better morals because he was willing to die for his friends, his family and pos like yourself waste of air.
My Dad was 19 when he and his unit parachuted into Korea after China got into the war. Of the 102 men in his company 26 survived. My dad was shot twice and laid in a ditch for 2 days until rescued. Until his death he had nightmares of that war.
Your father was with the 187th Airborne Regimental Combat Team in Korea then. They made one combat jump at Munson Ni on 25 April 1951 AFTER the Chinese entered the war. They also made a Combat jump at Sukchon on 20 October 1950 BEFORE the Chinese entered the war. The 187 made the only parachute jumps of the war. Be nice if you knew what Company he was with. My 19 year old father was with K Company, 3rd Battalion and made both jumps. He had "Night Horses" all of his life too.
Had an uncle kia mid 3/68 , tail end of bloody TET 10 days b-4 my 11th bday . My grandpa was in the All Americans / 82nd A/B Div. In WW2 in the ETO. He jumped into Normandy 6/6/44 , and took part in the grim fighting of the hedgegrows . He landednear St.Mere Eglise , and heard the hollars screams , and machine gun fire , motars , 88s , and rifle fire . He used he thought he'd was crapping himself . The fighting in the hedgegrows was horrific . Allied fighter bombers would drop their invediaries , and napalm to flush out hidden Nazi-Grman strongly.pt.s . His unit constantly tyked it out with Waffen SS units. They were no more than 15-17-18 yr of age , as were most Nazi- German troops , and anywhere from formidable determination to utmost finatacism . Granpa was a medic w / rank of captain , and was allowed to carry a weapon , which he did a 30 cal. carbine , which he used he had to frequently in those hedgegrows . He then tookmpart in Field Marshall General Bernard Montgomery's near failure of a plan to end the war in the ETO xing the Rhine River via Holland mid 9/44. The Brit paratroopers landed on an Waffen SS panzer div. ,and were mauled @ Arnhem (A Bridge Too Far for sure)! Out of 8000 Brits barely 3000 made it back to allied lines! The US of As 101 , and 82nd A/B Div.s faired slightly better , unsuccessfully xing the Rhine River , and had to defend against constant Nazi- German counter attacks with suffering high american casualties. Granpa was on RnR France- Belgium area , wen orders were given to get to the Ardennes . The Nazi- Germans were breaking out through Luxumburg / Belgium area mid 12/44 ( Battle of The Bulge)! On his way his jeep , he was riding in , hit a mine kia driver , and rider behind him , and wounding granpa , and rider back of him. Both laid on near a sunken path for nearly 10 hrs. B-4 being picked up by an american patrol, and was lucky , because the notorious Colonel of a Waffen SS 1st Panzer Division , the " Liebstandarte " was in the area. Colonel Joachim Piepers troops of that unit was culpable of murdering nearly over 100 US of A GIs around Malmedy. Grandpa took yrs w/ this , 4 it brought back a not to nice of a time period !

I served from 1988-2006. I wish I could’ve served back in this time. It just seemed like it was real war back then. Real Soldiers and real heroics. Nowadays it’s all computers and support and Burger King and Pizza Hut. Where’s the fun in that?
Times were hard in the 50’s. It was a police action. Korean War videos in color is as real as it gets. I hope this video can become colorized and posted on TH-cam.
@@Redmow51 yeah actually they were people were alot smarter then they knew they needed to fight communism from spreading. The draft was not as used as it was in vietnam
The dirtiest trick ever pulled on military personnel in the Korean war was this: The Red cross served coffee and doughnuts to American soldiers and Marines. then on the very next payday they(red cross) billed the soldiers and Marines for each cup and doughnut Eaten by the individual soldier and Marine! Seriously look it up
My Father who was in the Korean War,often talked about how the Red Cross didn't help anyone except themselves, and after returning home he never gave them even a drop of blood during one of their Blood Drives or donated as much as a nickle during one of their Fund Drives..After seeing the "stunts" they pulled in Korea, he despised them until the day he died....
My dad was a frog man in ww2. He told me that after an invasion of one of the islands the red cross would sell cigarettes to the guys while the salvation army would hand them out free.
@@surgeongeneralsmokes That's very intetesting.U no korean war vets r up in their mid late 80s and 2 r leaving this earth.Hey,vietnam vets r in their mid 70s alreddy.
My dad went over to Korea in late August of1950 with the 2nd Div. HQ. when it was sent to the Pusan Perimeter, at the time he was a financial clerk. My dad told my brothers, sisters and me that he celebrated Thanksgiving in the North Korean capital around the time the communist Chinese invaded Korea. Because of this he was transferred 23rd Infantry Regiment in early December of 1950. The only battles I know my dad was in were Twin Tunnels and Chipyong-ni.
The WACs were racially integrated by this time too (along with the other female US forces). Funny how almost no one wants to mention this today. Disgusting political narratives, not true history, is what matters.
@@boondocker7964 John Wayne fought the Indians out west,was in the longest day as a paratrooper on dday,was fighting on the sands of Iwo Jima!He did alot-----in the movies!

What a joke, "To defend you ,the American people fro agression" THERE HAS NEVER BEEN ANYONE EVER TO ENTER AMERICA IN AGRESSION. This can only mean one thing, America does not know where its boarders are, so has asumed they own the world. Nothing could be further from the truth, and the lie has cost millions and millions of lives due to AMERICAN AGRESSION. The Canadians did a really good job in korea, as the Korean people are the first ti admit, they did so with one outstanding thing that cannot be said of America, and this statement applies to every action taken by America, that is, when finished, the Canadians returned home after helping the Koreans, but America stayed there even up to today, effectivly taking control of the place as they did in Japan, Germany, just about every where they have involved themselves, they forget to leave, this is why it is the only country that has over 2000 bases all over the world in someone elses back yard. America clearly has the idea that it is an empire, which it is not, the reaon they stay is purely a monitary one bleeding dry every country it occupies, and interfering in the domestic affairs of that country. Today they think that the south CHINA seas belongs to America, and the country that can legally lay claim due to where it is i.e. China, is in trouble for their use of the very sea named after the country again THE SOUTH CHINA SEA, it does not say the American south China sea because America has not an inch of coast line on this sea, where as China does, that why its called the south CHINA SEA. I think it is about time that NATO sat America down and gave it a lesson in geography and also in democracy, pointing out dwhere AMERICA starts and finishes. It may also think it about time they were also told about their inability to stick to agreements which isvsomething America has not been able to do since day one, ask the Dekota indians they can give you chapter as verse on Americas ability to stick to agreements. We are fast coming to the point where Americas idea of waving the big stick to get its own way is taking the world closer by the day towards some kind of conflict, purely because America seems to think everyone should do as they say, and cannot understand that its actions of threatening countries like China and The Federation of Russia, when these countries have every right to get annoyed at being threatend by someone who really does not understand its place in the world, i.e. its NOT the worlds police, and never has been and never will be, and making the asumption that it is, really is a very misguided and dangerous assumption.
@Arch "Have you ever heard of the words "AIPAC" or "Talmud"? That is because they are censored." 1. Why Yes I have heard of them. 2. Who is censoring them? "Do you remember that Sadam did NOT have any WMDs, and that we were duped into war?" If you had asked ANY intelligence agency in the world, Is Saddam Hussein try to get Nuclear Weapons, they would have said not just yes but OF HELL YES. Remember he tried once before but the IDF Air Force put an end to that, Ah yes The (cue the theme from Jaws) Rothschild's! BTW I've been following Conspiracies since the late 60's. They didn't make much sense...and ever less today. It is however one life's little pleasures to make fun of conspiracy nuts.
@Arch Because I'm 1. Sane 2. Read/Study History? 4. points 1. The Creator Of The Universe Talking To Abram "I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.” Genesis 12:3 2. For around 3500 years there have been those who have tried to get rid of The Jews...With A Notable LACK of Success 3. My Lord & Savior (that would be Jesus of Nazareth) was born A Jew...Raised A Jew...Resurrected From The Dead..A Jew. 4. If they (the (cue the theme from Jaws) Rothschild, have been trying to kill the Non-Jews, the question must be asked...Why Are There Still So many Non-Jews Around? I am left with 2 possibilities. Either They're not very good at this OR Those who think like you are doing a very good impersonation of an ignorant Moron. Which do you think it is? I'm gonna go with the latter.

I am 93 years old and I fought in Korea in 1952-53 spent 9 months on the front lines. I was a tank commander with the 72nd Tank Battalion. Fired on many of the hills in the Iron Triangle area and over to 😊Kumwa area.
Our tank was damaged just once and was dragged back by our tank repair team. Ended up having PTSD.
Amen hope no one will have to go to war . SHK
Thank you, Sir. Respect!! Sorry you had to expirience that. 😢
Thank you, to the Turks that served with distinction in Korea.
My father 🇺🇸Maynard Sanborn 🇺🇸was in 4 plt company A 68 th med tank 2 armed divisions said when he first got there it was so cold an they gave them ice cream to eat with wooden spoon so hard could use as rocks .they strapped the dead on the sides they were frozen soiled .every time I made a fuss over a cool jet or tank ,he'd look me strait in the eyes an say that thing made only to kill human beings that's it just to kill .
My father died of cancer when I was 22 I watch these videos maybe see a glimpse of him ,probably just like quite a few other guys looking for family members .🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thank you for posting. Peace to all.
These are the Men the Maoists/ Soviet/Russians were really afraid of.....He He- Amen Sir/Ma'am.
I served from 1988-2006. I wish I could’ve served back in this time. It just seemed like it was real war back then. Real Soldiers and real heroics. Nowadays it’s all computers and support and Burger King and Pizza Hut. Where’s the fun in that?
Sorry but the living conditions were terrible back then. At least now you can get an ice cream and burger before you risk your life.
반갑습니다!!! 좋아요!!! GOOD!!!
gonna cuai? haha
Times were hard in the 50’s. It was a police action. Korean War videos in color is as real as it gets. I hope this video can become colorized and posted on TH-cam.
Amazing how they downplayed everything with jokes for television back then. Kept the volunteers coming I guess.
You don't think much of those volunteers, do you?
@@Redmow51 yeah actually they were people were alot smarter then they knew they needed to fight communism from spreading. The draft was not as used as it was in vietnam
It would be great if there were original broadcast date information. It's hard to know when it all happened. Thanks.
The dirtiest trick ever pulled on military personnel in the Korean war was this:
The Red cross served coffee and doughnuts to American soldiers and Marines.
then on the very next payday they(red cross) billed the soldiers and Marines for each cup and doughnut
Eaten by the individual soldier and Marine! Seriously look it up
My Father who was in the Korean War,often talked about how the Red Cross didn't help anyone except themselves, and after returning home he never gave them even a drop of blood during one of their Blood Drives or donated as much as a nickle during one of their Fund Drives..After seeing the "stunts" they pulled in Korea, he despised them until the day he died....
My dad was a frog man in ww2. He told me that after an invasion of one of the islands the red cross would sell cigarettes to the guys while the salvation army would hand them out free.
Hey,it's the american way.
@@surgeongeneralsmokes That's very intetesting.U no korean war vets r up in their mid late 80s and 2 r leaving this earth.Hey,vietnam vets r in their mid 70s alreddy.
Fuckin A, We Are Infantry, C Co 1/31st Infantry Mechanized Camp Greaves/Casey Korea 11/75-11/76
My dad went over to Korea in late August of1950 with the 2nd Div. HQ. when it was sent to the Pusan Perimeter, at the time he was a financial clerk. My dad told my brothers, sisters and me that he celebrated Thanksgiving in the North Korean capital around the time the communist Chinese invaded Korea. Because of this he was transferred 23rd Infantry Regiment in early December of 1950. The only battles I know my dad was in were Twin Tunnels and Chipyong-ni.
my uncle was an mp in ww2
VICTORY UN ARMY /////////////// FROM SOUTH KOREA
The old brown boot army.....today's soldiers don't even know what polishing boots is about....it was steel pots and C rations for us
I never understood the logic behind polishing the combat boot. In war, who has the luxury to shine their boots??
수고하셨습니다.

상은 없어. 단지 자존심은.찾는구야. 심판은 내가 보고. 찐하게. 해보자 이거 쓸만한 제안. 그럼 상으로 조용히 전쟁하지 않고 문제 해결하자. 나머지도.
Very bloody conflict that doesn't get the recognition it deserves .
i was in a unit that had sound+ flash to find a guns firing pos
Bug out....what a wonderful euphemism
The Jam Little boy soldiers is what i thought if when i saw the kid at the beginning
1:58 great scene of black and white soldiers fraternizing together, no more segregated units!
Desegregated units were wat was going on.Segration was bak ww2 which ,@ that time,changed all that.
The WACs were racially integrated by this time too (along with the other female US forces). Funny how almost no one wants to mention this today. Disgusting political narratives, not true history, is what matters.
Is that John Wayne narrating? Sure sounds a lot like him
He was never in the service, he was too good to carry a rifle.
@@boondocker7964 John Wayne fought the Indians out west,was in the longest day as a paratrooper on dday,was fighting on the sands of Iwo Jima!He did alot-----in the movies!
@@boondocker7964 John Wayne was a green beret 2!In the movies.
At 2:51 in this video, what was going on with that mail exchange? What is up with the guy sitting on the ground?
"Uncle Dan's Huddle " LOL Almost like Huddle House in the states . I said Almost . Huddle House was established . in 1955 the year I was born .
We have a Huddle House in Brandenburg, KY. I was born in '46 and was 5 when my dad left for the Korean war. He lived to be 89 and in his last couple of years he opened up about his war experiences. He was a great dad.
Sounds like John Wayne. Probably is as his voice wasn't quite as gruff in his earlier years.
Korea still had the upbeat news service like ww2
Going to the other side of the world to defend your own country... well done...
at this point in the war radar ranging and air obs were used instead of sound ranging
Excelente calidad de la cinta de cine
I am a chinese,wy unkle joined volunteer army and fought in koren.he came back to china alive.I haed the war

served 44th smah in1967

look up the opening of this newsreel! Cracks me up that they actually want you to believe that there's nothing but clouds around the globe when neither are true! The Earth is flat and every eye shall see him the instant he appears in the sky at the same time because the Earth is flat
Patrick Gragg Your head is flat!
@@rgball1960 I think his head is empty. Damn.
Cracks me up that people like you still exist.
You flat earthers are stoopid, the earth is a donut shape! Why do you believe the government on this?
To much BS talking it’s propaganda.Yes my Dad served there as a AP n K-9 Handler dog’s name Apollo
said it’s the coldest place in Hell
And you see what South Korea is and what North Korea doesn’t. We have LG, Samsung, Hyundai creating jobs all over the world thanks to the US and the free world
Wow
This is very good example of a propaganda when,.. a one aggressor talks about the other.

What a joke, "To defend you ,the American people fro agression"
THERE HAS NEVER BEEN ANYONE EVER TO ENTER AMERICA IN AGRESSION.
This can only mean one thing, America does not know where its boarders are, so has asumed they own the world.
Nothing could be further from the truth, and the lie has cost millions and millions of lives due to AMERICAN AGRESSION.
The Canadians did a really good job in korea, as the Korean people are the first ti admit, they did so with one outstanding thing that cannot be said of America, and this statement applies to every action taken by America, that is, when finished, the Canadians returned home after helping the Koreans, but America stayed there even up to today, effectivly
taking control of the place as they did in Japan, Germany, just about every where they have involved themselves, they forget to leave, this is why it is the only country that has over 2000 bases all over the world in someone elses back yard.
America clearly has the idea that it is an empire, which it is not, the reaon they stay is purely a monitary one bleeding dry every country it occupies, and interfering in the domestic affairs of that country.
Today they think that the south CHINA seas belongs to America, and the country that can legally lay claim due to where it is i.e. China, is in trouble for their use of the very sea named after the country again THE SOUTH CHINA SEA, it does not say the American south China sea because America has not an inch of coast line on this sea, where as China does, that why its called the south CHINA SEA.
I think it is about time that NATO sat America down and gave it a lesson in geography and also in democracy, pointing out dwhere AMERICA starts and finishes.
It may also think it about time they were also told about their inability to stick to agreements which isvsomething America has not been able to do since day one, ask the Dekota indians they can give you chapter as verse on Americas ability to stick to agreements.
We are fast coming to the point where Americas idea of waving the big stick to get its own way is taking the world closer by the day towards some kind of conflict, purely because America seems to think everyone should do as they say, and cannot understand that its actions of threatening countries like China and The Federation of Russia, when these countries have every right to get annoyed at being threatend by someone who really does not understand its place in the world, i.e. its NOT the worlds police, and never has been and never will be, and making the asumption that it is, really is a very misguided and dangerous assumption.
@Arch Says the MORON, who ENJOYS the freedom these and other men gave you to spout off, you MUST be young....AND AN IDIOT!!!
Said No Reasonably Intelligent person ever.
@Arch
"Have you ever heard of the words "AIPAC" or "Talmud"? That is because they are censored."
1. Why Yes I have heard of them. 2. Who is censoring them?
"Do you remember that Sadam did NOT have any WMDs, and that we were duped into war?"
If you had asked ANY intelligence agency in the world, Is Saddam Hussein try to get Nuclear Weapons, they would have said not just yes but OF HELL YES. Remember he tried once before but the IDF Air Force put an end to that,
Ah yes The (cue the theme from Jaws) Rothschild's!
BTW I've been following Conspiracies since the late 60's. They didn't make much sense...and ever less today. It is however one life's little pleasures to make fun of conspiracy nuts.

"I see. You are a Jew."
You say that like its some sort of Bad Thing?
@Arch
Because I'm 1. Sane 2. Read/Study History?
4. points
1. The Creator Of The Universe Talking To Abram
"I will bless those who bless you,
and whoever curses you I will curse;
and all peoples on earth
will be blessed through you.”
Genesis 12:3
2. For around 3500 years there have been those who have tried to get rid of The Jews...With A Notable LACK of Success
3. My Lord & Savior (that would be Jesus of Nazareth) was born A Jew...Raised A Jew...Resurrected From The Dead..A Jew.
4. If they (the (cue the theme from Jaws) Rothschild, have been trying to kill the Non-Jews, the question must be asked...Why Are There Still So many Non-Jews Around? I am left with 2 possibilities. Either They're not very good at this OR Those who think like you are doing a very good impersonation of an ignorant Moron. Which do you think it is? I'm gonna go with the latter.
Ami go home!!! Greetings from Germany. Grüße aus Deutschland. This is not your Land.
