I REMEMBER KOREA
I hestitate to report this for fear of causing dispair in the effort to have
the Korean War remembered, however, here goes:
My nephew called me last evening. His child's, James Carter, III,
kindergarten teacher sent home a paper with American Wars listed and space
after each for the children to write in family members who participated in
each war Guess which war was missing? Well, my nephew had to squeeze in
the proper spot chronologically - THE KOREAN WAR, so he then could add
Donovan E. Carter KIA 7/12/50 in the Korean War, my beloved brother, his
Uncle. I was pretty disturbed, but encouraged because my nephew, Jimmy
Carter (also a school teacher) will enlighten the elementary school staff
and he also sent Don's picutre along in uniform to be put on the wall
display about our veterans.
Regards, GerneyLee Carter (Donovan E. Carter, 24d, 21st, 3d, Co. M) Korea
6/25 - 7/12/1950
