The Korean War - June 25, 1950 thru July 27, 1953
Forgotten by all but those that served.
War is truly hell and those who fought would never glorify it. Those Wisconsinites helped save a nation and then returned home, without honor or fanfare.
Wisconsin has long forgotten the 132,000 of her sons and daughters who served in the cause of freedom in the Korean War
801 were killed in action
4,286 were wounded
111 were prisoners of war (54 of these died in POW camps)
84 are still officially listed as missing in action
