So what Cold War video do YOU want to see next, let us know in the comments! Korean War: The military component of the UN forces were: the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Turkey, Australia, Philippines, New Zealand, Thailand, Ethiopia, Greece, France, Colombia, Belgium, South Africa, Netherlands, and Luxembourg
I’m Turkish. Back in July I went to Washington DC, and I went to the Korean War Memorial. The amount of names on there were shocking. Even my own Great- Great Grandfather fought at sea during the war. At the memorial, it says “Freedom is not free” which really hits hard if you think about it.
So all these countries interfere Korea inside conflict by use freedom as excuse and cut the country in deux part. But South Korea who has freedom just don’t have control of its own army.
My Grandpa was in the Air Force during the Korean War. He served as a radioman in Korea. He later served in Vietnam but back in the states. He retired as Tech Sergeant. He sadly passed away in 2020.
My grandfather fought for the U.S. Army in the war. He told me a story of his where he was in a bunker with his squad and a grenade came into the bunker and he was the closest to the exit and he got out of the bunker and was the only one to get out just in time seeing his friends all get blown apart and killed behind him. Though he did suffer an injury to his leg that was non-life threatening. He then afterwards got surrounded by North Koreans and had to go back and hide in the same bunker throwing his friends dead body over his and getting there blood on him so he looked dead too. He said he laid there in the bunker and pretended to be dead with his dead friends bodies on him for two days until the North Koreans were pushed back and he was later found by Americans and saved. He then suffered an infection in his foot and had a toe cut off. He then continued to fight with his toe cut off and what he just saw. My grandfather just past away February 9th 2021 peacefully at 91 years old. He was the hardest working man I’ve known and a great grandfather and I wished I would have sat down and learned more from him when I had the chance as he probably had many other stories to tell me.
General Douglas MacArthur: "nuke 'em" Harry Truman: "no" General Douglas MacArthur: "NUKE 'EM" Harry Truman: "NO" General Douglas MacArthur: "AWWWW, C'MON" Harry Truman: "you're fired"
My granpa was 18 years old when the Korean war broke out. He ran away from home in North Korea to avoid getting recruited, but he was captured by the South Korean army and became a combat engineer. He said the images of bodies burnt by a flamethrower still haunts him. Poor old man passed away 4 years ago.
I'm sorry for your loss. My Grandpa, rest in peace, was also psychologically scarred for life by that war. Hopefully the war and DMZ will soon be relics of the past.
Dear Koreans, from a US Air Force vet. I'm glad you guys are still with us in the free world, and I'm honored to have y'all as allies. May God bless you and I pray for peace in our lives.
I thank you greatly for your service. I served in ROK-US CFC as a translator, and I was very grateful to be part of the alliance. The U.S. will always be our strongest ally.
Just realised that I actually knew almost nothing about the Korean War, didnt realise it was this big and involved multiple countries including my own, Australia.
@@qwilder9680 they could easly win by using nuclear weapon but instead they wanted to setup a peace rather than completly demolish country like japan few years ago

He was enjoyed a war if you want a war and his his well-known said that one death is a tragedy; one million is a statistic...
@@porridgegood1 Not to discussing politics, military failure means you can't achieve your strategic goals which was.Push to the Chinese border at that time. US and both Korea Army were lost cos they can't achieve their strategic target. but Chinese win it cos their goal is protect their Strategic buffer zone and help North Korea to hold their regime. so only China win the Military victory. although more KIA in the war, but we can't said Russia lost world war II cos more their soldiers died and wounded. They never want Korea become a unitary country. they want to did it again in vietnam unfortunate， it was failed
Syngman Rhee's demonstration that he would go north alone hindered the cease-fire with his independent release. The Korea-U.S. Mutual Defense Treaty and the terms of the South Korean military build-up. At that time, Rhee Syngman's judgment was that the Korea-Japan forced merger and the division of the Korean Peninsula were distrusted in the mind that the U.S. could no longer trust the U.S. due to the betrayal of the U.S. The U.S. raised Rhee Syngman. The U.S. also prepared the so-called Everready Plan and appeasement plan to eliminate Rhee Syngman.

My grandmother's father was killed in action. She told me that she still remembers the time when her father left home in the morning wearing a military uniform, saying he would be back soon. This is her last memory of her father. Also, my father's uncle was separated from his family during the war. During the family reunions, he was able to meet with his family briefly, but only for a few days and no news has been heard since.
I am Turkish my grandfather also we nt this war , he died 4 month ago because of covid 19 after that we opened him gallery and found photos in korea i am proud of with him
Thank you for your grandfather your grandfa's victim has been protecting our democracy and freedom from 1950 to nowdays I admire your grandfa thank you so much i'll never forget korean war veterans
Grandpa survived the battle of the chosin reservoir. Was part of a group named the chosin few. Dog company. Edit: just remembered a really sweet story. My grandpa went to visit the Korean War monument in saint louis, in which his name is inscribed on, and met a little girl that he saved back in 1951. He remembered her name and everything
The "Süleyman Dilbirliği" a Turkish soldier during the Korean War. Saved a Korean girl and adopted her as daughter. The movie *Ayla* portrays this dramatic story. Your grandfather's story is same with this...
I am Korean. My grandfather was also a veteran of the Korean War. If someone reading this family participated in the Korean War, please be sure to tell them. Thank you. You are a hero and I will never forget to thank your family.
I am chinese. I’ve known people who fought on our side. They strictly believe that the US and UN were planning an invasion of China with that bloodthirsty general in charge. I’ll be sure to thank them for defending us.
Hi I am a south korean and some people are saying that north korea is the truth korea , but in this way there is no truth korea because before it was divided into two countries .
I am Korean-American, and grew up listening to stories of tragedy and heroism by my Grandfather who served as a NCO at Incheon. Deepest gratitude to those who fought and sacrificed for defending Korea and the Korean people's rights to live in a free nation. 🇰🇷🫡
Either that or a full Vietnam game, Black Ops wasn’t entirely Vietnam... I’m sick of modern war, future war, and WWII Call of Duty games.... those are great but we need different wars now.... if not then at least give us sequels to Advanced Warfare and Ghosts!
Aside from Medal of Honor 2010, every modern and future game lost my interest the moment it was announced. I ended up playing them eventually, and they're all right, but I never got sick of WW2 games, so when they made a game that was one part invasion of not-Iraq and two parts Tom Clancy ripoff, and it all went downhill from there, I was always thinking "I could be playing Assassin's Creed instead."
@@HarleyQuinn_93 Maybe they can have the player character serving as a private in the Korean war yelled to do everything in the war, then have the character shown in Vietnam in the next volume as a sergeant major or something, yelling to the player to do everything, just like Reznov! Both of them will be fun to play!! Make it happen!
Read "The Last Stand of Fox Company: A True Story of U.S. Marines in Combat" if you get a chance, great book about the Marines that held a tiny hill against thousands of Chinese and were instrumental to allowing the US forces to retreat.
Both my grandfathers fought in this war and my grandmother's brother was killed in this war! We would go to his grave stone and my grandmother would cry even though his body wasn't there! They never recovered his body!
My grandfather was also in the war with the Turkish Brigade. He did return to Turkey but when I try to find out more about him, there isn't anything in the archives. Almost like he doesn't exist. I wonder how many more were disrespected like this.
And my great-grandfather was a Filipino Troop in the Battle Of Yultong. He was really fearless despite the fact the Chinese and N.Koreans Troops outnumbered them. They pushed them back really hard.
Round One I’m Chinese and I’m not being disrespectful... The Chinese fought the battle because the us would supposedly invade China from Korea. Although it’s not true, they were defending their country. I wonder did the us veterans ever think about what they are fighting for. A different ideology on the other side of earth? Is it deserve to die for it?
We do not forget the Korean War. Never forget. We will remember the warriors who sacrificed for our country and thank all the countries that helped us.
@@poyunlai8529 I think there is no 'if' in history. You can imagine if they hadn't split us in two, but that's not reality. The reality is that North Korea invaded us. It was violent, cruel, and terrifying. And then countless countries fought for us. I'm grateful for that. Even if not. Regardless of political reasons, can you not thank an individual who fought for his life for the Republic of Korea?
REMEMBER HEROES 🇺🇸🇬🇧🇨🇦🇹🇷🇦🇺🇵🇭🇹🇭🇳🇱🇨🇴🇬🇷🇳🇿🇪🇹🇧🇪🇫🇷🇿🇦🇱🇺🇮🇳🇳🇴🇩🇰🇸🇪🇮🇹 🇰🇷 As a Korean, I respect the war veterans who protected the freedom of South Korea today.

"Both were led by very sweet looking old man, but don't let that decive you. They were ruthless dictators and both dreamed reuniting Korea under their own regime."
R&N RailProductions When I was in high school I took World History, and United States History. The Korean War was only worth a section of the chapter in both textbooks. About four or five pages that either may have been dedicated to it, or just hinted at it as the topic changed. Yet World War I, the Great Depression, and World War II get entire chapters of the textbook.
@Rincon Ni As an American, I wish we could use our military similar to the UN as a peacekeeping division, to prevent war and help wartorn countries instead of starting them. We have no control on what our government does and money is apparently what they only want. I do not envy China or North Korea as well, I just wish they can prosper without being under a dictatorship
@@GilJacswitzyearsago no thats awful. thats what we have been doing and it does not work. we are not the world police and we should not act like it. Nobody wants that.
It took a war in a small peninsula to destroy the image he created on himself after bringing down a military superpower during WW2 all by himself in 5 years which was Japan
Josef Stalin even if you'd say it's over, it's really a stalemate as they are back to were it started (again, if you ignore the fact that it's technically still ongoing)
General Mcarthur was fired by Truman because he wanted to use the Atomic Bomb but Truman said it was too dangerous and General Douglas Mcarthur didn't let Truman know General Mcarthur took so much land.
All the veterans from all over the world fought for my country, S. Korea, are remembered and will be remembered, because I will tell my son and daughters how and what you sacrifice for Koreans during the Korean war, as my parents did to me. Your brave story will be our history. Thank you for your service and Gob bless
Those are intruders. . All should have to die. . The Korean War was originally a matter within North Korea, so why should foreign countries intervene? ? Is America really for your Korean interests? They are just for their own benefit.
@tu tu Sure, other countries sent a token force to help. But calling it a "UN Force" is a bit disingenuous when 90% of this force was American, with the vast majority of it funded by America.
My grandfather was born in Germany but was able to escape to America as a youth before WW2. He later enlisted in the US army when he was old enough and fought in the Korean war. He died many years ago. He never spoke about the war but I think he was very motivated to enlist because he understood the dangers tyranny.
Actually what North Koreans made easier to attack South Korea is because the USA prohibited South Korean army from organizing their troops. In that period, American government thought Syngman Rhee is a warmonger and didn't let him stationing land forces alongside the 38 parallel. Which led South Korea extremely vulnerable to foreign invasion. I personally appreciate how USA and UN secured our homeland, gave aid for rebuilding our economy, but it is true that their misjudgment weakened our self defensiveness, 'unintentionally' helping North Korea.
rhee was a warmonger and terrible dictator. his behavior was no better than anything the north did at the time, in fact it was worse, and communists enjoyed good support even in the south
even if south korea had organisation, they lacked heavy weaponry. north korea had far more artillery and medium tanks because the soviet gave them a lot of SU76 (initially a tank hunter i know, but it can be used as artillery with HE-FRAG shells and pointing the gun upward) and T34 85 , while south koreans had only few chaffee and M4 easy 8 . and previous war prooved than when your army lacks heavy weaponry, you cannot stop your ennemy
Tianhang Xia from your name I’m guessing your from China? I hope y’all are doing better with the virus. Did China support North Korea and North Vietnam in their civil wars? How do the Chinese feel about the USSR? I can look these things up but I like asking an actual person and see what they say

@@diegojames8678 Civil war? You mean the war between a gov support by socialism and a gov support by capitalism. We did. How could we just stand by and wait for the failure of our comrades? USSR used to be the instructor and friend of CCP and China. However, it fell to be a country which was full of corrupt bureaucrat and traitors. We lost a great friend due to fallen by itself, and years later China were the same. USSR is the faith of all the Marxists and Lieninists, it did fail, it won't be back.

My grandfather fought for the Colombian army. He was really young when he joined and decided going to the war, (he was just 21), and he used to tell me how hard that was. There were kinda a few Colombian soldiers (5.000), and in that year, Colombia was not really well-armed or prepared to be on a really serious thing. The "weird" (or what most called my attention), is that despite Colombian soldiers did their best in there they've got a low recognition, and veterans ain't so remembered. Anyway, my grandpa was part of an artillery batallion, and he got captured in an ambush, wich he was captured and taken as a war prisoner, but, (by a reason i still don't know) he was fastly released. He knew english, so he was able to speak to other people, and he told me that Colombians were called "Demons" by the north koreans, because they died on their grounds, and never falled back, despite of being attacked or being out of supplies, and most of them died holding their grounds and fighting until the last moment they could.
Gracias por contar la historia de tu abuelo. Siempre he escuchado que hubo soldados colombianos en la guerra de Corea, pero no sabia nada más de ellos.

Only Japan apologized and paid compensations to the colony though there was no war between Japan and Korea. We should learn from Germany?
@Brady Carrigan Of course that's irony. I meant Koreans have no right to pretend to be a victim because they are in the aggressor side. Malaysia, the Philippines, those countries have never committed any aggression to foreign countries. So they can play a victim card. But Korea can't.
@@백지-e8m Yes, I keep on claiming the fact Korea has perfectly no justice. Korea requires more money in spite of the money of 1965 and renounced Japanese assets whereas Korea doesn't pay war reparations to Vietnam. And they always say they want a sincere apology not money. money money money

Awesome video as always! My great grandpa fought with the 65th infantry regiment (us army). He was shot in the head, and survived. He passed away of cancer in the 2000's. One of the bravest, and most amazing people in my whole family. RIP papa Campos.
The 65th Infantry Regiment was made up of native Puertoricans, my Great Grandfather was also one of them. His name was Lt. Benjamin Ramos. He survived being blown away from a grenade (and falling down a cliff in the process) when he and his unit where patrolling. He was the sole survivor between him and 5 other guys that got blown away. He later was wounded in combat, when fighting Chinese forces. And soon after he was sent back to the U.S in Kentucky., later surviving an airplane crash where the aircraft broke in half on landing. He broke his leg in the process but survived all those things, and he lived until 2011. @Simple History, I'd be an honor for us Puertorican viewers if you could make a video of the 65th Infantry Regiment, as they showed what the people of my little country can attribute to the USA.

Through this video, it was an opportunity to look back on the Korean War, the heartbreaking history of our country. To protect this land, I will live by remembering the sacrifices of many Korean soldiers and overseas dispatchers who sacrificed themselves. Thank you for making such a great video I won't forget.
Do you remember that there was an Indian medic regiment which supported the troops on the front. Sadly this wasn't mentioned in this video but those Indian soldiers were honoured by both USA and Korea but due to misunderstanding that the Indians were fighting for the soviets many of the Koreans opposed the Indian paratroopers from entering their country, this was because India wasn't in UN at that time.
My 4th Cousin Times Removed fought in the Korean War. He was also a WWII vet. He was nicknamed "The Spectacular Speck", since his name was James Speck. His story made its way onto Ripley's Believe it or Not. H was in a Cavalry Division In the Pacific. He crawled around 3 Japanese MG nests, shot a Japanese Sniper, and crawled back to reorganize his platoon. Later, he went to fight in Korea. He was a survivor.
United States, United Kingdom, Turkey, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ethiopia, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Thailand, Philippines, Greece, South Africa, Colombia THANK YOU SO MUCH! I WILL NOT FORGET YOU GUYS.💗
My grandfather fought in this war all the way from Pusan to Seuol, he like most of the troops who fought there was a WWII veteran and so knew what he was doing. He saw many South Koreans soldiers die for simply incompetence by Southern leaders and always found them very brave, he hated communism before the war and hated it till he passed and always said that we should’ve liberated both of the Koreas.
MacArthur the US General thought so, too, and one US military general wanted to use atomic bombs. As an American, I am glad that we did not. Sometimes you can win all the battles and lose the war anyway.
@@ninatrabona4629 We never lost Korea, we kept South-Korea in-tact and i would say it was worth it. A shame we didn’t get both Korea’s though, if it weren’t for the damn Chinese
@@williamsherman1942 That is just an expression, and it means that the other side inflicted so many casualties and so much destruction that it left your side much weaker, even though you won the battles and chased the enemy off the field. It is like on the Ukrainian-Russian front right now and in World War One in early 20 th century where the two sides are trying to demolish each other's War hardware and kill off each other's soldiers.
My grandfather participated in this war. He is a soldier in China. He said that the Korean army is very weak. The Korean army always runs away. Every time the American army prepares to surround the China army, the Korean soldiers will run away, which leads to the failure of the American plan.

I have spoken to a few Korean people and they always show gratitude to the troops who put their life on the line to help their country.

Syngman Rhee's demonstration that he would go north alone hindered the cease-fire with his independent release. The Korea-U.S. Mutual Defense Treaty and the terms of the South Korean military build-up. At that time, Rhee Syngman's judgment was that the Korea-Japan forced merger and the division of the Korean Peninsula were distrusted in the mind that the U.S. could no longer trust the U.S. due to the betrayal of the U.S. The U.S. raised Rhee Syngman.

Actually what North Koreans made easier to attack South Korea is because the USA prohibited South Korean army from organizing their troops. In that period, American government thought Syngman Rhee is a warmonger and didn't let him stationing land forces alongside the 38 parallel. Which led South Korea extremely vulnerable to foreign invasion.
I personally appreciate how USA and UN secured our homeland, gave aid for rebuilding our economy, but it is true that their misjudgment weakened our self defensiveness, 'unintentionally' helping North Korea.
rhee was a warmonger and terrible dictator. his behavior was no better than anything the north did at the time, in fact it was worse, and communists enjoyed good support even in the south

서보민 The USA doesn’t always make perfect decisions, but the leaders do what’s best to help people. I’m glad we are allies with the South.🇰🇷 🇺🇸
even if south korea had organisation, they lacked heavy weaponry.
north korea had far more artillery and medium tanks because the soviet gave them a lot of SU76 (initially a tank hunter i know, but it can be used as artillery with HE-FRAG shells and pointing the gun upward) and T34 85 , while south koreans had only few chaffee and M4 easy 8 .

My grandfather fought for the Colombian army. He was really young when he joined and decided going to the war, (he was just 21), and he used to tell me how hard that was. There were kinda a few Colombian soldiers (5.000), and in that year, Colombia was not really well-armed or prepared to be on a really serious thing. The "weird" (or what most called my attention), is that despite Colombian soldiers did their best in there they've got a low recognition, and veterans ain't so remembered. Anyway, my grandpa was part of an artillery batallion, and he got captured in an ambush, wich he was captured and taken as a war prisoner, but, (by a reason i still don't know) he was fastly released. He knew english, so he was able to speak to other people, and he told me that Colombians were called "Demons" by the north koreans, because they died on their grounds, and never falled back, despite of being attacked or being out of supplies, and most of them died holding their grounds and fighting until the last moment they could.

@@백지-e8m Yes, I keep on claiming the fact Korea has perfectly no justice. Korea requires more money in spite of the money of 1965 and renounced Japanese assets whereas Korea doesn't pay war reparations to Vietnam. And they always say they want a sincere apology not money. money money money

Same, but my great-grandfather was in the Chinese People's Volunteer Army, lol
@@hmbbpaidaxing8999 Haha is your grandfather a member of the Chinese People's Army?
Awesome video as always! My great grandpa fought with the 65th infantry regiment (us army). He was shot in the head, and survived. He passed away of cancer in the 2000's. One of the bravest, and most amazing people in my whole family. RIP papa Campos.
One of the first to engage the enemy in the Korean war
The 65th Infantry Regiment was made up of native Puertoricans, my Great Grandfather was also one of them. His name was Lt. Benjamin Ramos. He survived being blown away from a grenade (and falling down a cliff in the process) when he and his unit where patrolling. He was the sole survivor between him and 5 other guys that got blown away. He later was wounded in combat, when fighting Chinese forces. And soon after he was sent back to the U.S in Kentucky., later surviving an airplane crash where the aircraft broke in half on landing. He broke his leg in the process but survived all those things, and he lived until 2011.
@Simple History, I'd be an honor for us Puertorican viewers if you could make a video of the 65th Infantry Regiment, as they showed what the people of my little country can attribute to the USA.

@@iswandialibasah1563 kim il sung actually made north korea more prosperous than the south. In fact he almost made korea proof communism or socialism whatever you wanna lable them as back then as the first successful country of the political ideals. Kim jong il really fucked it up
Sakthi Mohan Yeah basically anything America decides to do and goes out to do with that mindset we’re going to do and win. There is no country on planet earth that would even come close to standing a chance I guess the United States. Our military is more powerful than the 11 strong as countries combined underneath us

Through this video, it was an opportunity to look back on the Korean War, the heartbreaking history of our country. To protect this land, I will live by remembering the sacrifices of many Korean soldiers and overseas dispatchers who sacrificed themselves. Thank you for making such a great video I won't forget.

I am a proud Korean.. And I support those who survived the Korean War... Thank you for protecting our Republic of Korea!
Hi from california. We'll make those commies bleed red when the time comes...general Patton even wanted to nuke the chinese for interfering.
Do you remember that there was an Indian medic regiment which supported the troops on the front. Sadly this wasn't mentioned in this video but those Indian soldiers were honoured by both USA and Korea but due to misunderstanding that the Indians were fighting for the soviets many of the Koreans opposed the Indian paratroopers from entering their country, this was because India wasn't in UN at that time.

My 4th Cousin Times Removed fought in the Korean War. He was also a WWII vet. He was nicknamed "The Spectacular Speck", since his name was James Speck. His story made its way onto Ripley's Believe it or Not. H was in a Cavalry Division In the Pacific. He crawled around 3 Japanese MG nests, shot a Japanese Sniper, and crawled back to reorganize his platoon. Later, he went to fight in Korea. He was a survivor.

Long live Kim Jong Un
My grandfather fought in this war all the way from Pusan to Seuol, he like most of the troops who fought there was a WWII veteran and so knew what he was doing. He saw many South Koreans soldiers die for simply incompetence by Southern leaders and always found them very brave, he hated communism before the war and hated it till he passed and always said that we should’ve liberated both of the Koreas.
Thank you for protecting our country.
God bless your families. 🙏
MacArthur the US General thought so, too, and one US military general wanted to use atomic bombs. As an American, I am glad that we did not. Sometimes you can win all the battles and lose the war anyway.
@@ninatrabona4629 We never lost Korea, we kept South-Korea in-tact and i would say it was worth it. A shame we didn’t get both Korea’s though, if it weren’t for the damn Chinese
@@williamsherman1942 That is just an expression, and it means that the other side inflicted so many casualties and so much destruction that it left your side much weaker, even though you won the battles and chased the enemy off the field. It is like on the Ukrainian-Russian front right now and in World War One in early 20 th century where the two sides are trying to demolish each other's War hardware and kill off each other's soldiers.
My grandfather participated in this war. He is a soldier in China. He said that the Korean army is very weak. The Korean army always runs away. Every time the American army prepares to surround the China army, the Korean soldiers will run away, which leads to the failure of the American plan.

My father served in the Korean War albeit the tail end of it and I’m extremely proud of him. He was a radio signalman and had a very important job to do. He is 92 and still in good health. I have seen him in many marches and he looks so proud with his medals on. I have spoken to a few Korean people and they always show gratitude to the troops who put their life on the line to help their country. Who would’ve thought that 60 years on they would become a superpower. They’ve certainly come a long way.
