[@STREETSTANG07]

My dad was in Korea 1952. Looking at his old pictures looked just like these guys. Flak jacket M2 carbine and a boat load of hand grenades. He was in the eight army some big battle in an area called the punch bowl. He’s still alive at 89 years old and feisty as ever.

[@allandavis8201]

No matter how many times I watch this film it never ceases to amaze me that these men were not actors, or at least not many of them, the acting is a little wooden but that’s only to be expected, how they managed to film this during the war and under the pressure that a real contact could happen at any moment is amazing, they all deserve medals. 😀👍🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 P.S That’s the worst mine detecting I have ever seen, far to fast and to deep, how, if it was real, they didn’t set one off is incredible.

My grand father served in Korean war as an interpreter following the US army. Same as the young Korean soldier shown in this movie. I still remember his right hand was crippled due to a gun shot he got in the battle fighting against CPLA and had a huge scar on it. He passed away 21 years ago. This movie reminds me how he served back then and made me understood more about him. He lived quiet after coming back home from the front and didn't say that much about he experienced in the battle field to his family nor to his son, my father. I regret I will never be able to ask him about the time he passed through. But, you let me watch this movie and now I have much clear tails of him. Thank you for sharing the history. And thank you for your service Allies.

The Soldier that died in the movie actually died 12 hours later in real life! He didn't want to be in the movie. He wanted to be with his men in combat instead. So they shot his 'death scene' two weeks early because he protested so much.His name was Ricardo Carrasco from texas. Please remember him and the rest who fought and died in that war.

I loved seeing Korea's beautiful landscapes before modernization. As well as the locals, it is hard to imagine that this was filmed right at the end of the war and to think of all that they and our soldiers had endured. I have served in South Korea myself, several tours 4 years in total. I also served during excercise Team Spirit in both 1984 and 1985, some of the very rural areas still looked this way, but the cities were very modern and dynamic. My last trip back was about 12 years after my last tour, but as a civilian in 2016 and it had changed so much even in that time period. I am very proud of our alliance and what the Korean people have accomplished.

I thought I never saw this movie, but when they started singing the "Onward" song I recalled having that song stuck in my head as a small kid. I loved war movies as a kid, so I am not too surprised I didn't miss this one, even if I can't recall anything about the plot. Funny thing about war movies now, is all I see is young men killing each other and feel sad. When I contemplate that the Hell we put those men through is, in all too many cases, for other men's profits and power, then I get angrier than Hell.

My Uncle Noel Powers brought back a Korean orphan to the U.S. when he came home from the war. He found the little fellow wandering around on his own half starved. Kis name was Billy Kim.

Where was this movie actually photographed? The place was very similar to Korea because there were Korean cows or rice fields or straw houses or twisted pine trees. I am sure that soldier Kim was not Korean American but Korean Augmentation Troops to US Army because his home was nearby and her wife was living there. And once more I thank US for sending troops and saving Free Korea in Korean War, among whom were killed 35,000. I am a Korean who is always gratified by US Army to Korea.

13:59 That was a black soldier with a BAR. Imagine having a white soldier as your ammo carrier!! During WWII, the U.S. Army was still segregated. White and black soldiers served in separate units.

It's a movie and nothing is accurate. .Black men were put where needed though and putting them upfront was not uncommon. They never got the credit but still were there.

Have u folks forgotten about WW2 The Red Tails. A group of Black fighter pilots that flew P-51 Mustangs called the Red Tails that escorted B-17s all the way to Berlin, and while they were bombing Berlin , the P51s looked for targets of opportunity, like trains, factories, and German planes on the ground. Very well known group of black pilots, known as the Tuskegee Airmen. Watch the movie on youtube its free. Show your children their role in WW2. They also did a lot of dog fighting when the German fighter planes attacked the B-17 bombers.
