Not taken in North Korea in July 1950, we were retreating to the Pusan Perimeter.

I think a couple of these were mislabeled at the time...like that one about allies, seemed more like MCRD.

I think back to days of sleeping on the side of the road on days like yesterday, when it was super chilly and thank my luck I don't have to do it any more. We got used to it but I think it told on us in later years.
