Korea 1950

UN soldiers fought and were forced to retreat Behind sandbags protected by barbwire hoops. Many GI's died as they held off attacks, By 810,000 Communist troops. Our guys used phosphorus, flame-throwers and napalm, For without these weapons they could not survive. The Communist charges led by buglers, Till the UN could start it's offensive drive. On the battlefield of death and misery Many froze with their hands still stuck to their guns. While others hobbled with their boots wrapped in rags, City boys, farmers, students, fathers and sons. With a million and a half dead or wounded, Both sides singed a truce before generals involved. July 27th, 1953, And though thousands were orphaned, nothing was solved.
