Pretty good analysis. As a Korean War vet I am teching a course – as a volunteer – at a local senior center which has some 40 people attending.

Good chronological presentation of a little known subject
Good chronological presentation of a little known subject. This deserves to be shown in our high schools to illustrate how the US sent American men to halt and turn back it’s aggression we paid the high cost of opposing communism. As a retired HS Social Studies/History teacher and veteran of the Vietnam War I was shocked how little my colleagues and students knew about the conflict and most do not know that American troops are still deployed on Korean soil helping to defend our Allies there.

A Gem!
If you love history plus the sacrifices that have been made for others and ourselves as part of societies, you will love this set. It does have some good old Army propaganda, but what would history be without it? In short, I really enjoy going back into time and seeing how people lived and how they conquered the stones in the path. One last item, the price is great for the information.

Would have been better if it worked right
It was an interesting documentary about the war done by the US Army’s sponsored show The Big Picture. It had interviews with veterans shortly after the war. I returned my because DVD one did not have sound when I played it. The edges of the case looked beat up a little so maybe it was used. The movies one the fourth dvd are not that good. I would have kept it if DVD one played correctly. For $5 its not bad.

a documentary???
sure, this DVD contains some rare archival footage of the Korean War but i fear that it is truly nothing more than propaganda for the Corrupt US Industrial Machine.
