I want to say thank you for who ever posted this. It’s crazy that I’ve looked for any history about the Korean War and Canada’s involvement to find nothing easily accessable. It's even more crazy to find this and never less it talk about Songgok Spur. My grandfather served there and you can see him at 25.51 secs as he is the man with his leg up and a green beret. So crazy that even when my mother watched it she was blown away by seeing a photo of him….. Thank you again.

They haven't sacrifice for nothing. Always their intention was just to rule the World. Britain Canada and Australia has always been the part of America's war machine. Japan, Soviet Union and America was so interested grab lands of Korea because of the resources and rich culture if 2 Korea Unites then might become a Global super power which USA and their allies knows and they always wanted slay Korea and keep Korea as a weapon to conquer Pacific ocean. you might be brain washed as like Japanese today thinks Atom bombs dropped on them was Soviets not USA. that much western mainstream media brain wash people.

@@hyonhoshin1241 You must understand how western Colonial powers are trying to surround China. Hong Kong isn't a part of UK and Macau isn't a part of Portugal so my point is it is USA and their Allies interest to do everything they can to slow down China's rise. So to survive from American aggression China has to fight the great wars Korean War and Vietnam war even when after the revolution China wasn't ready for any war. China is still trying to defend its people and their lands. they have tasted invasion slavery Colonization.

Leo Major did not just go to scout. He and his platoon held the enemy back, wave after wave and kept the position. Seeing the impact on Mr. Ferris of observing the net result of his and his comrade's sacrifice is touching. He revels in the fact that through his courage the Korean people have made the best of it.

Very good documentary.... My father served with the 1st Battalion of the Royal 22nd Regiment in Korea from April 1952 to March of 1953. He was a 22 year old sergeant when he arrived and turned 23 on June 1st 1952. On the night of June 22nd he was on a night patrol with about 25 men to capture enemy combatants, a common strategy in Korea that was criticized in after action reports. Their patrol was provided with a new innovation supplied by the US Marines... Flack Jackets. It was the first time these jackets were ever worn by Canadian troops, and for the entire Korean war they typically fought without Flack Jackets. During this patrol they encountered a large force of enemy combatants and a firefight ensued with grenades eventually being used to repel the enemy... They lost 1 man killed, who's body was recovered because my wounded father wouldn't let them take him away, until they brought his dead Canadian Chinese interpreter as well... 2 men were listed as missing. One was captured by the North Korean's and the other is still listed to this day as MIA... The man who was captured complained that the patrol left him behind... But my father didn't leave his companion behind. After action reports stated that the Flack Jackets proved useful... And they obviously did and saved my father who was wounded in the leg by shrapnel, while his interpreter was struck in the head and died.

China never cares who is in charge of the peninsula, but the Westerners approaching our borders again reminds us of many painful memories. Imagine how would you feel if China came all the way to Cuba? The USSR would go crazy if it just dropped a nuclear bomb in Cuba. What if China sent hundreds of thousands of troops to Cuba? The Japanese understood hundreds of years ago that to invade China, they had to start by invading the Korean Peninsula. We have sacrificed too many people on this land.

@@Lord_Baphomet_ Yes, so why did the US complain about the Cuban nukes? Not to mention how harsh the winter in the Bering Strait was and how unsuitable it was to attack, not to mention that they had to cross Canada. Do you think South Korea was democratic and free at the time? No, they were all brutal. Imagine that your neighbor is a jerk, and he and his jerk brother are arguing about the division of the property. Your neighbor has the upper hand at first, until his bully brother calls a well-known bully to help. They open fire there, and the bullets are about to hit your yard. What would you do at this time? Not to mention that just over ten years ago, a bully (Japan) just used the same trick!

@@user-so3ll9sq4t Like it or not precursors to war vary in many different ways. For the US it’s simple all you have to do is see if they are shortening basic training, that’s it. But mobilization of troops on foreign soil, that is basically a declaration. China does this constantly with their Navy harassing the Philippines and Japan. Russia does this with their Air Force and Their Navy. North Korea fires a ICBM every once in awhile. People seem to forget that the Americans in Korea fought side by side with South Koreans. It wasn’t American imperialism, it was America politics. The west will never be total allies with Russia or China because their values and motivations are different. So we do what we can.
