My grandfather fought for the U.S. Army in the war. He told me a story of his where he was in a bunker with his squad and a grenade came into the bunker and he was the closest to the exit and he got out of the bunker and was the only one to get out just in time seeing his friends all get blown apart and killed behind him. Though he did suffer an injury to his leg that was non-life threatening. He then afterwards got surrounded by North Koreans and had to go back and hide in the same bunker throwing his friends dead body over his and getting there blood on him so he looked dead too. He said he laid there in the bunker and pretended to be dead with his dead friends bodies on him for two days until the North Koreans were pushed back and he was later found by Americans and saved. He then suffered an infection in his foot and had a toe cut off. He then continued to fight with his toe cut off and what he just saw. My grandfather just past away February 9th 2021 peacefully at 91 years old. He was the hardest working man I’ve known and a great grandfather and I wished I would have sat down and learned more from him when I had the chance as he probably had many other stories to tell me.
I’m Turkish. Back in July I went to Washington DC, and I went to the Korean War Memorial. The amount of names on there were shocking. Even my own Great- Great Grandfather fought at sea during the war. At the memorial, it says “Freedom is not free” which really hits hard if you think about it.
So all these countries interfere Korea inside conflict by use freedom as excuse and cut the country in deux part. But South Korea who has freedom just don’t have control of its own army.
My Grandpa was in the Air Force during the Korean War. He served as a radioman in Korea. He later served in Vietnam but back in the states. He retired as Tech Sergeant. He sadly passed away in 2020.
My granpa was 18 years old when the Korean war broke out. He ran away from home in North Korea to avoid getting recruited, but he was captured by the South Korean army and became a combat engineer. He said the images of bodies burnt by a flamethrower still haunts him. Poor old man passed away 4 years ago.
I'm sorry for your loss. My Grandpa, rest in peace, was also psychologically scarred for life by that war. Hopefully the war and DMZ will soon be relics of the past.

Dear Koreans, from a US Air Force vet. I'm glad you guys are still with us in the free world, and I'm honored to have y'all as allies. May God bless you and I pray for peace in our lives.

Hi I am a south korean and some people are saying that north korea is the truth korea , but in this way there is no truth korea because before it was divided into two countries .
Grandpa survived the battle of the chosin reservoir. Was part of a group named the chosin few. Dog company. Edit: just remembered a really sweet story. My grandpa went to visit the Korean War monument in saint louis, in which his name is inscribed on, and met a little girl that he saved back in 1951. He remembered her name and everything
Just realised that I actually knew almost nothing about the Korean War, didnt realise it was this big and involved multiple countries including my own, Australia.

Syngman Rhee's demonstration that he would go north alone hindered the cease-fire with his independent release. The Korea-U.S. Mutual Defense Treaty and the terms of the South Korean military build-up. At that time, Rhee Syngman's judgment was that the Korea-Japan forced merger and the division of the Korean Peninsula were distrusted in the mind that the U.S. could no longer trust the U.S. due to the betrayal of the U.S. The U.S. raised Rhee Syngman. The U.S. also prepared the so-called Everready Plan and appeasement plan to eliminate Rhee Syngman.
My grandmother's father was killed in action. She told me that she still remembers the time when her father left home in the morning wearing a military uniform, saying he would be back soon. This is her last memory of her father. Also, my father's uncle was separated from his family during the war. During the family reunions, he was able to meet with his family briefly, but only for a few days and no news has been heard since.

Either that or a full Vietnam game, Black Ops wasn’t entirely Vietnam... I’m sick of modern war, future war, and WWII Call of Duty games.... those are great but we need different wars now.... if not then at least give us sequels to Advanced Warfare and Ghosts!
Aside from Medal of Honor 2010, every modern and future game lost my interest the moment it was announced. I ended up playing them eventually, and they're all right, but I never got sick of WW2 games, so when they made a game that was one part invasion of not-Iraq and two parts Tom Clancy ripoff, and it all went downhill from there, I was always thinking "I could be playing Assassin's Creed instead."

I am Korean-American, and grew up listening to stories of tragedy and heroism by my Grandfather who served as a NCO at Incheon. Deepest gratitude to those who fought and sacrificed for defending Korea and the Korean people's rights to live in a free nation. 🇰🇷🫡
Thank you for your sacrifices. We could have been standing in the world so far due to your sacrifices. Now we help many countries. And it’s only because of you. If you need a help, we will never hesitate help you.

Both my grandfathers fought in this war and my grandmother's brother was killed in this war! We would go to his grave stone and my grandmother would cry even though his body wasn't there! They never recovered his body!
My grandfather was also in the war with the Turkish Brigade. He did return to Turkey but when I try to find out more about him, there isn't anything in the archives. Almost like he doesn't exist. I wonder how many more were disrespected like this.
And my great-grandfather was a Filipino Troop in the Battle Of Yultong. He was really fearless despite the fact the Chinese and N.Koreans Troops outnumbered them. They pushed them back really hard.
Round One I’m Chinese and I’m not being disrespectful... The Chinese fought the battle because the us would supposedly invade China from Korea. Although it’s not true, they were defending their country. I wonder did the us veterans ever think about what they are fighting for. A different ideology on the other side of earth? Is it deserve to die for it?
"Both were led by very sweet looking old man, but don't let that decive you. They were ruthless dictators and both dreamed reuniting Korea under their own regime."
R&N RailProductions When I was in high school I took World History, and United States History. The Korean War was only worth a section of the chapter in both textbooks. About four or five pages that either may have been dedicated to it, or just hinted at it as the topic changed. Yet World War I, the Great Depression, and World War II get entire chapters of the textbook.
Read "The Last Stand of Fox Company: A True Story of U.S. Marines in Combat" if you get a chance, great book about the Marines that held a tiny hill against thousands of Chinese and were instrumental to allowing the US forces to retreat.
My grandfather was born in Germany but was able to escape to America as a youth before WW2. He later enlisted in the US army when he was old enough and fought in the Korean war. He died many years ago. He never spoke about the war but I think he was very motivated to enlist because he understood the dangers tyranny.
It took a war in a small peninsula to destroy the image he created on himself after bringing down a military superpower during WW2 all by himself in 5 years which was Japan
All the veterans from all over the world fought for my country, S. Korea, are remembered and will be remembered, because I will tell my son and daughters how and what you sacrifice for Koreans during the Korean war, as my parents did to me. Your brave story will be our history. Thank you for your service and Gob bless
Those are intruders. . All should have to die. . The Korean War was originally a matter within North Korea, so why should foreign countries intervene? ? Is America really for your Korean interests? They are just for their own benefit.
Through this video, it was an opportunity to look back on the Korean War, the heartbreaking history of our country. To protect this land, I will live by remembering the sacrifices of many Korean soldiers and overseas dispatchers who sacrificed themselves. Thank you for making such a great video I won't forget.
Awesome video as always! My great grandpa fought with the 65th infantry regiment (us army). He was shot in the head, and survived. He passed away of cancer in the 2000's. One of the bravest, and most amazing people in my whole family. RIP papa Campos.
The 65th Infantry Regiment was made up of native Puertoricans, my Great Grandfather was also one of them. His name was Lt. Benjamin Ramos. He survived being blown away from a grenade (and falling down a cliff in the process) when he and his unit where patrolling. He was the sole survivor between him and 5 other guys that got blown away. He later was wounded in combat, when fighting Chinese forces. And soon after he was sent back to the U.S in Kentucky., later surviving an airplane crash where the aircraft broke in half on landing. He broke his leg in the process but survived all those things, and he lived until 2011. @Simple History, I'd be an honor for us Puertorican viewers if you could make a video of the 65th Infantry Regiment, as they showed what the people of my little country can attribute to the USA.

My grandfather fought in this war! He died long before I was born but I always wish he were alive so I can ask him about his time. I know he was among the men who captured Pyongyang.
Actually what North Koreans made easier to attack South Korea is because the USA prohibited South Korean army from organizing their troops. In that period, American government thought Syngman Rhee is a warmonger and didn't let him stationing land forces alongside the 38 parallel. Which led South Korea extremely vulnerable to foreign invasion. I personally appreciate how USA and UN secured our homeland, gave aid for rebuilding our economy, but it is true that their misjudgment weakened our self defensiveness, 'unintentionally' helping North Korea.
rhee was a warmonger and terrible dictator. his behavior was no better than anything the north did at the time, in fact it was worse, and communists enjoyed good support even in the south
even if south korea had organisation, they lacked heavy weaponry. north korea had far more artillery and medium tanks because the soviet gave them a lot of SU76 (initially a tank hunter i know, but it can be used as artillery with HE-FRAG shells and pointing the gun upward) and T34 85 , while south koreans had only few chaffee and M4 easy 8 . and previous war prooved than when your army lacks heavy weaponry, you cannot stop your ennemy

@Brady Carrigan Of course that's irony. I meant Koreans have no right to pretend to be a victim because they are in the aggressor side. Malaysia, the Philippines, those countries have never committed any aggression to foreign countries. So they can play a victim card. But Korea can't.

My grandfather fought for the Colombian army. He was really young when he joined and decided going to the war, (he was just 21), and he used to tell me how hard that was. There were kinda a few Colombian soldiers (5.000), and in that year, Colombia was not really well-armed or prepared to be on a really serious thing. The "weird" (or what most called my attention), is that despite Colombian soldiers did their best in there they've got a low recognition, and veterans ain't so remembered. Anyway, my grandpa was part of an artillery batallion, and he got captured in an ambush, wich he was captured and taken as a war prisoner, but, (by a reason i still don't know) he was fastly released. He knew english, so he was able to speak to other people, and he told me that Colombians were called "Demons" by the north koreans, because they died on their grounds, and never falled back, despite of being attacked or being out of supplies, and most of them died holding their grounds and fighting until the last moment they could.

Do you remember that there was an Indian medic regiment which supported the troops on the front. Sadly this wasn't mentioned in this video but those Indian soldiers were honoured by both USA and Korea but due to misunderstanding that the Indians were fighting for the soviets many of the Koreans opposed the Indian paratroopers from entering their country, this was because India wasn't in UN at that time.
they were not the only ones, though you will notice that this is a extremely brief history & dose not cover the individual battles, not even some of the real key ones.

Syngman Rhee's demonstration that he would go north alone hindered the cease-fire with his independent release. The Korea-U.S. Mutual Defense Treaty and the terms of the South Korean military build-up. At that time, Rhee Syngman's judgment was that the Korea-Japan forced merger and the division of the Korean Peninsula were distrusted in the mind that the U.S. could no longer trust the U.S. due to the betrayal of the U.S. The U.S. raised Rhee Syngman. The U.S. also prepared the so-called Everready Plan and appeasement plan to eliminate Rhee Syngman.

Yet World War I, the Great Depression, and World War II get entire chapters of the textbook.

Awesome video as always! My great grandpa fought with the 65th infantry regiment (us army). He was shot in the head, and survived. He passed away of cancer in the 2000's. One of the bravest, and most amazing people in my whole family. RIP papa Campos.
One of the first to engage the enemy in the Korean war
The 65th Infantry Regiment was made up of native Puertoricans, my Great Grandfather was also one of them. His name was Lt. Benjamin Ramos. He survived being blown away from a grenade (and falling down a cliff in the process) when he and his unit where patrolling. He was the sole survivor between him and 5 other guys that got blown away. He later was wounded in combat, when fighting Chinese forces. And soon after he was sent back to the U.S in Kentucky., later surviving an airplane crash where the aircraft broke in half on landing. He broke his leg in the process but survived all those things, and he lived until 2011.
@Simple History, I'd be an honor for us Puertorican viewers if you could make a video of the 65th Infantry Regiment, as they showed what the people of my little country can attribute to the USA.

My grandfather fought in this war! He died long before I was born but I always wish he were alive so I can ask him about his time. I know he was among the men who captured Pyongyang.
Actually what North Koreans made easier to attack South Korea is because the USA prohibited South Korean army from organizing their troops. In that period, American government thought Syngman Rhee is a warmonger and didn't let him stationing land forces alongside the 38 parallel. Which led South Korea extremely vulnerable to foreign invasion.
I personally appreciate how USA and UN secured our homeland, gave aid for rebuilding our economy, but it is true that their misjudgment weakened our self defensiveness, 'unintentionally' helping North Korea.
rhee was a warmonger and terrible dictator. his behavior was no better than anything the north did at the time, in fact it was worse, and communists enjoyed good support even in the south

even if south korea had organisation, they lacked heavy weaponry.
north korea had far more artillery and medium tanks because the soviet gave them a lot of SU76 (initially a tank hunter i know, but it can be used as artillery with HE-FRAG shells and pointing the gun upward) and T34 85 , while south koreans had only few chaffee and M4 easy 8 .

*Hears Communist Chinese music*
US soldiers: Wait... what was that?
UN troops*
ps nerd gaming yeah but mostly us
@tu tu Sure, other countries sent a token force to help. But calling it a "UN Force" is a bit disingenuous when 90% of this force was American, with the vast majority of it funded by America.
40,000 korean and chinese: Advance!!!
1,400 filipinos: Ehem???
@tu tu Left out? No, but you can't credit much to their countries, or the UN as a whole, compared to over 300k US soldiers sent there.

My grandfather fought for the Colombian army. He was really young when he joined and decided going to the war, (he was just 21), and he used to tell me how hard that was. There were kinda a few Colombian soldiers (5.000), and in that year, Colombia was not really well-armed or prepared to be on a really serious thing. The "weird" (or what most called my attention), is that despite Colombian soldiers did their best in there they've got a low recognition, and veterans ain't so remembered. Anyway, my grandpa was part of an artillery batallion, and he got captured in an ambush, wich he was captured and taken as a war prisoner, but, (by a reason i still don't know) he was fastly released. He knew english, so he was able to speak to other people, and he told me that Colombians were called "Demons" by the north koreans, because they died on their grounds, and never falled back, despite of being attacked or being out of supplies, and most of them died holding their grounds and fighting until the last moment they could.
Gracias por contar la historia de tu abuelo. Siempre he escuchado que hubo soldados colombianos en la guerra de Corea, pero no sabia nada más de ellos.
My father served in the Korean War albeit the tail end of it and I’m extremely proud of him. He was a radio signalman and had a very important job to do. He is 92 and still in good health. I have seen him in many marches and he looks so proud with his medals on. I have spoken to a few Korean people and they always show gratitude to the troops who put their life on the line to help their country. Who would’ve thought that 60 years on they would become a superpower. They’ve certainly come a long way.
Is he still alive?

My 4th Cousin Times Removed fought in the Korean War. He was also a WWII vet. He was nicknamed "The Spectacular Speck", since his name was James Speck. His story made its way onto Ripley's Believe it or Not. H was in a Cavalry Division In the Pacific. He crawled around 3 Japanese MG nests, shot a Japanese Sniper, and crawled back to reorganize his platoon. Later, he went to fight in Korea. He was a survivor.
General Mcarthur was fired by Truman because he wanted to use the Atomic Bomb but Truman said it was too dangerous and General Douglas Mcarthur didn't let Truman know General Mcarthur took so much land.
My great grandfather fought in the korean war thankfully he is still alive

Hi from california. We'll make those commies bleed red when the time comes...general Patton even wanted to nuke the chinese for interfering.
Do you remember that there was an Indian medic regiment which supported the troops on the front. Sadly this wasn't mentioned in this video but those Indian soldiers were honoured by both USA and Korea but due to misunderstanding that the Indians were fighting for the soviets many of the Koreans opposed the Indian paratroopers from entering their country, this was because India wasn't in UN at that time.

Hi, I am a student living in Korea. Thank you for letting me know the painful history of our country.
During the war, 58,809 South Korean soldiers were killed and 178,632 were injured.
At the end of the war, when Korea was divided into the 38th parallel, families broke up.
And there are people who haven't met their families yet.

Edit: Despite me making fun of him, he was a very fine general, the Nuke thing may be too hardcore, however his prediction of "North Korean ask China for a helping hand and they send Nk 2 Army of Mosin Nagant Ant" came true.
@kupis1408 And yet as more time has passed it's ever more clear that MacArthur was right to call for the use of the Atom bomb. It's would have quickly pushed China out of the war and crushed it's supply lines. MacArthur wanted to use the bombs on the Chinese army's troop formation areas and supply dumps first and foremost with striking cities inside China as a last resort.
