62 years ago today North Korea crossed the 38th parallel.

US: 36,940 dead
92,134 wounded
3,737 MIA
4,439 POW

And to complete the quote: “are condemned to repeat it” Santayana

Just a FYI sort of reminder.

    Thanks for the reminder! I’ m calling my buddy who served with the 14th Infantry Regiment, 25th Division and thank him for his service in the forgotten war- not conflict!

    136 years ago today the Battle of the Greasy Grass began. It ended the next day.

  3. DaveO: I’m not so sure about equivalencies, but thanks.

    My timing is accurate, as is yours.

    The parallels are interesting save one small thing.
