I had a discussion with someone on a thread the other day and he mentioned Korea as a war we lost.

I disagreed, because we participated and fought, there has been a divided Korea for sixty years, half of it free.

If we hadn’t, it would have been 100% Communist.

That counts as a victory in my book.

The Korean War took place before my time, and I've not spent much time reading about it, so I'm not one to talk about whether we achieved our goals or not.

One can't look at the above photo and claim that we lost. We may not have gained all we wanted to, but that's how it goes in life. You achieve what you can.

I'm with you on this one.
