Thinking of my dad on Memorial Day

in life •  7 years ago 

My dad was in the Korean War. He took the pictures below. He was in the battle for Pork Chop Hill. Did anyone see that movie?

Looks just like the TV show M.A.S.H.

Thanks, for your fathers' service! I wish American's now, were as eager to selflessly serve as they were then.

Your dad was a wonderful man and I did see Pork Chop Hill - a very long time ago.

The war that has never finished. Got stuck at half time!

Great memorization ... I think, Those adventure days are wonderful and not forgotten...@markvance..

Thanks

It deserves this day of the fallen, they deserve to be remembered for all that effort and commitment they have with their nation, I liked the photos this takes us a bit to the past

Hello how are you? I like to see a bit of these photos and this story and see a bit of how was the war at that time, it's good that they have their day to thank all those people what they do

Thanks for your dad and his service. What he did and all those who serve in the war will always be remembered.

Love how happy they all look in these shots. Thanks for sharing.

Smiling for the camera, I guess.

Yes Korea was a tough war ; amazing how people can still manage a smile under such circumstances.
