This page has lots of graphics. Please
allow time to load.



This page was set up to provide
a place to put other photos from and/or about Korea
during the war years that were from other
organizations that were in Korea.
If someone
has any photos that they feel would be of interest
to Korean War Veterans that are willing to place on
this site please
and I will be glad
to put them on this site.

All the photos on this page came from the
book "Korean Vignettes: Faces of War" Author/editor,
Arthur W.Wilson. Photographer, Norman
Strickbine.
