Re: korean-war.com (off topic)



That was the first - and only - time we fought communist forces to a
standstill (Grenada doesn't really count. The Salvation Army could whip the
Cuban army). And it is the last war in which we forced our enemy to sign a
cease-fire agreement. South Korea is still in control of its own destiny.
That alone is enough to put our war in the "win" column.
