Thanks bananamafia,

The Korean War is kinda a forgotten War not much is discussed on the subject it ran for 3 years, and a rather bloody affair.

I wonder, if you were to ask a group of MASH fans which war was being depicted, how many could give the correct answer?

Australian Korea veterans were often given the cold shoulder by their WWII brethren.

Hi Oz,

I believe things were quite different here. No animosity what so ever Korean vs WW2 vets here in the States. Many Korean War personnel also served in WW2.
