Christmas During the Korean War

» by in: Korean War

US soldiers, airmen, sailors, and marines have been spending Christmas in Korea for over 50 years.  This year is no different, but no Christmas in Korea was as desperate as during the Korean War.  However, even during the dark days of the Korean War US military personnel still found ways to celebrate Christmas:

Men of Co "B", 4th Signal Bn, X US Corps, prepare to decorate the Christmas tree at Bn HQ. Korea. 11 December 1951.

This Christmas remember not only the brave US military personnel of the Korean War, but also all the US military personnel away from home this Christmas.  I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and a Happy Holidays.
