"I wonder what fraction of young people know the U.S. fought in the Korean War, or even approximately when it occurred."

I don't recall the exact number produced by a survey but remember being astonished at how many Americans believe that WW II was fought in XIX century --- against the British. What should we expect them to know about a smaller war such as Korean?

All I know is that the north korean commies fired on and hit the ship my Dad was on in 1952...and they’re still threatening anybody and everybody with war...
