This book presents oral histories from the last surviving UK
veterans of the Korean War. With the help of the UK National Army
Museum and the British Korean Society, this book collects nearly
twenty testimonials of UK veterans of the Korean War. Many only
teenagers when mobilized, these veterans attempt to put words to
the violence and trauma they experienced. They recall the landscape
and people of Korea, the political backdrop, and touching moments
in unlikely situations. Like other oral histories of war, their
stories recount friendship, hardship, the loss of innocence, and
the perseverance of humanity in the face of cruelty. The
testimonies were taken by academics and students from the
University of Roehampton, and supported by the National Army Museum
and the British Korean Society. Through their memories we learn a
great deal about the conflict in macro and micro scales.
