Inscription. They answered their country's call to defend a people they did not know. They did their duty fighting a tenacious enemy in battle under some of the most miserable conditions ever faced by American warriors.
When the truce came, the people they went to defend were still free, but at a terrible cost - 54,246 young Americans dead, 8177 missing and 103,284 wounded.
Those who returned quietly faded away and they and the war they fought were soon forgotten.
We do hope the Korean War veterans courage, resolve and sacrifices will always be remembered and "not forgotten".
