Korean War: May Massacre at Chuncheon

Ha~ sure is. Or like a stroll throught the tulips, only when they spring up, you don't wanna be
near them.

Have a good one,

For the 61st anniversary of the battle (May 18th) I decided to hike up the north slope of Mt. Gari on a beautiful May day
and paid my respects to the only memorial in the area, this one to a French Engineer Battalion (?). There isn't
any other memorials dedicated to the battle that I'm (sadly) aware of.
I first approached F Co. of 23rd RCT where I found the remains of a trip flare near where the machete was found. Then
I came across one CCF bunker that showed plenty of evidence of Chinese soldiers' presence and found several
troop/supply routes with finds such as rice bowls, a Chinese soldier's hand mirror as well as several DP pans and a
drum for the Ppsh-41.

Beautiful nature! Nice finds too.

Yes, the hills and countryside are what really drew me back to the country. As long as one can get by
the long winters, drastic changes in weather, monsoon season, humidity....still, I love the hills here!
