"THE WARS OVER"

This day, July 27, 2018, marks the 65th anniversary of the end of the Korean War (some call it a police action) but those who were there know it was a war.  The casualties I helped treat were certainly "war" injuries.
Today North Korea sent the remains of fifty-five American soldiers to South Korea in a special ceremony and a show of "good will".  These boxes were wrapped in UN flags.  I find that both disgusting and sad at the same time.  We went to Korea because our country called us to duty.  Those who fought there did not wear a blue helmet and certainly DID NOT BELIEVE THEY WERE WARRING FOR THE UN!
I cannot help thinking we dishonored them by wrapping them in a UN flag!...Medicineman!
