The Korean War & The 65th Infantry Regiment
Korea was ruled by Japan from 1910 until the closing days of WWII. In August 1945, the Soviet Union declared war on Japan, as a result of an agreement with the United States, and liberated Korea north of the 38th Paralell. U.S. forces subsequently moved into the south. By 1948, as a product of the Cold War between the Soviet Union and the United States, Korea was split into two regions, with separate governments.
Both governments claimed to be the legitimate government of all of Korea, and neither side accepted the border as permanent. But on June of 1950, the conflict escalated into open warfare when North Korean forces, supported by the Soviet Union and China, moved into the south, and took over South Korean goverment. Almost defeated, South Korean forces moved down to what it is known as The Pusan Perimeter. Pusan was the only safe city from the infamous North Korean forces.
On June of 1950, the UN approved a quick intervention from The United States Armed Forces, along with other countries' armed forces. The US Army included The 65th Infantry Regiment: An US Regiment in Puerto Rico made in March of 1898 (as soon as United States took Puerto Rico as a colony, previously a Spain's colony). It's official name "The 65th Infantry Regiment" was on June of 1920, when United States included Puerto Rican native soldiers inside that US Infantry Defense.
The 65th fought on WWI and WWII. They prooved they were cunning warriors; brave soldiers... Faithful ones who would never betray United States commands.
Some of them told their moments of the Cold War, mostly on The Korean War (yet some of them included in these interviews on WWII and Korea). Their words will let the reader of this book to know how Honor and Fidelity fighting for the United States is, and how the word "cowards" would never fit on them.
