The Killed In Action During The Korean War Along The Corridor Of The Memorial

in #history6 years ago

The memorial building was a very nice looking architecture.
As I entered into the building, the first thing I saw was the corridor.

The corridors were empty. But if you look at carefully, you can find the black stone boards standing along the corridors.

Oh my god, those names were killed in action during the korean war.

I had read their names for a while. They were someones’ sons and someones’ husband.
My father also took part in the Korean War, but he didn’t tell me the story of the war in detail.
Only words he told me was there were too much casualties after the battlefield and his friends joined together were almost dead during the war.

Turning to the other corridors, there were also names written in English.

Mainly American solders were sacrificed in Korean War. And 16 countries in the name of the United Nation took part in the Korean War along with U.S and Korea.

Freedom is not free.

That’s right.
But we must remember that all these sacrifices were caused by the One Dictator’s delusion.
His name was Kim Il Sung.

I was so sorry such losses suffered during the Korean War.

At the corner, I saw one couple sitting on the howitzer.

I took photo of them, because they looked so peaceful.
It seemed so ironic. Peace among the weapons.

Sort:  

what a construction, it's an inspiration to see what a human imagination can bring ti existence

Its a very good war memorial that depicts the names of the heroes of the Korean War. We hate Kim Il Sung because of the pain he caused a lot of people all over the world. But we hope that the terror in north Korea will end to stop the pain and suffering that is continuing over there. @slowwalker

A minute dead silence for these heroes of our time .

The Killed In Action During The Korean War Along The Corridor Of The Memorial has been resteemed by the @resteemmuse!

It's so very sad to see names of so many soldiers martyred in the war. I wish we had so many names for the sake of peace. When I saw the 1st picture of black slabs I thought it was one for each soldier but then there is a big list on each one of them, must have been so horrifying, and what their families must have gone through. Wars are drenching and painful but still everyone is fighting :-(
The pictures are captured very well, but I just feel wish it was for some more peaceful thing
