Thanks Runs Forever” — Korean War Photo Exhibit in Daejeon

There’s a Korean War photo exhibition outside Daejeon Train Station which thanks the 67 UN member governments that supported the Korean War (16 nations sent troops to Korea; another 5 provided medical assistance).

This is a period of remembrance, this past Saturday was the 61st anniversary of the start of the Korean War and next Tuesday is the 61st anniversary of The Battle of Osan and Task Force Smith. Next month, on July 27th is the anniversary of the Armistice.

It was something to see all these flags flapping in the breeze today as well as all the photographs of significant moments during the war (with English and Korean captions).
