Korea
One of the better ones that I have watched concerning Korea. It is long and
there is much great photography. But sadly, I notice that, as per
usual, the correct credit is not given when it is deserved. And, I fully realize
that it is not possible to always use actual photography of the event discussed
or being reflected upon. But if the film maker is discussing 'the Army," one
would at least think that he would use Army unit film to indicate
same. Many times within the film, the term, "Eight Army" or a certain
"Corps" is referred to when, in reality, and in the film, it is the Marines that
they are referring to. Way too many times the nariator speaks of "the army"
when it clearly shows Marines with camouflaged helmit covers and canvas
leggings. As the North Korean and Communist forces referred to us, "the yellow
legs." Berney, I see where this film does a great job of giving you
doctors the outstanding credit you so rightly deserve. Perhaps you will see, or
know, some of the Med unit personnel shown in this film. Stan, once
gain, many thanks for sharing this with us. Perhaps some of you on this mailing
list will see some sceens that you were right in the middle of. I was a 'late
comer' and didn't arrive in Korea until the 5th Replacement draft got there in
early '51. Semper Fidelis
