Summary:

In June of 1950, the North Korean Army initiated a massive attack on its neighbor to the south, beginning a see-saw war that would engulf the entire Korean peninsula. For the next three years, the United Nations and the Communists would wage a blood and brutal war. Though the Korean conflict is often referred to as the Forgotten war, those who fought and sacrificed for freedom will never forget.
