He expects 100 Turkish-Australians will take part in this year's city march. Most would be descendants of World War I soldiers, but several were veterans of the Korean War, when Turkey was allied with Australia.

You should hear the way South Koreans talk about the Turks who fought in the Korean War. I think if they had been running the show, instead of the UN (or the US for that matter), all of Korea would have been quickly liberated before the Chinese or the Russians could do anything about it.

Eventually they all march together don't they.

Still, we can get an idea of how those guys feel. Fur Shur I don't want to be buried in a graveyard full of people who were mere civilians during the Nam. Turned out they were the enemy.

I had to think about this one . . . after all those guys were just, "the poor Xon Xf x Xitch who died for theirs", to paraphrase Georgie Patton.

Weren't the Turks responsible for the slaughter of millions of Armenian Christians during WW1.

Some have even suggested that their systematic approach was Hitler's model for the final solution in WW2. How were they honorable again????
