It was 1937 when Joseph Donohue first met Frank Milisits in
grammar school. As they grew up together on the Upper East Side of
New York City, the two boys kept scrapbooks on World War II, became
junior aid-raid wardens, and attended block parties for returning
veterans. But little did Joseph and Frank know that their
fascination with war would eventually lead them one day to fight in
a hostile climate thousands of miles away.
In his Korean War memoir, Joseph Donohue chronicles the
captivating story of how two naive twenty-year-old kids made a
full-circle journey from draftees to basic training recruits to
airborne troopers who somehow summoned the courage to jump out of
the first planet they ever set foot in. As the young men arrived in
Korea during a time of uncertainty and chaos, Donohue details how
the two men quickly moved from days of complete boredom to
hair-raising moments as the crawled in the rat-infested trenches,
dodged booby traps and minefields, and risked their lives to keep
hordes of enemy soldiers at bay. One year later, they returned home
as combat veterans who has somehow survived terrifying battles and
a one-in-nine chance of becoming a war casualty.
" Frank and Me at Mundung-ni" provided an eye-opening glimpse
into the realities of "The Forgotten War" and the compelling
personal memories of two childhood pals who shared an impassioned
journey to a war neither would ever forget.
