Pictures of the Day: Memorial Service For US Soldiers Killed On the Korean DMZ

» by in: DMZ

Recently a ROK Drop commenter was nice enough to forward me some pictures he took of the memorial service that was held at Tachikawa AB in Japan where the 6 US Soldiers killed in “The Bloodiest DMZ Shootout” were brought on their way back to the United States for burial.  Here is a few of those pictures of the memorial service:

Here is the list of names of those killed:

  • Johnny W. Brenton
  • Robert W. Burrell
  • Morris L. Fischer
  • Leslie L. Hasty
  • James Hensley
  • Ernest D. Reynolds

It was good to see that these Soldiers who made the ultimate sacrifice while serving their country in defense of South Korea were treated with the dignity and respect they deserved on their way back home.
