On this day in history. 70 years ago today, on 27 July 1953, an armistice brought about a cease-fire in the Korean War. This is the poignant Scottish Korean War Memorial in the Bathgate Hills near Linlithgow. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/linlithgow/koreanwarmemorial/index.htm

Tens of thousands of #NorthKoreans marched in anti-U.S. rallies in the nation’s capital over the weekend, pledging “merciless” revenge against “U.S. imperialists,” as the country marked the 73rd anniversary of the start of #KoreanWar, state media said.

We hiked out to the site of the MASH TV programme set from the 1970s. Sore feet but well worth it. People outside of #losangeles think it's all concrete and anonymous cuboid buildings, but we have tens of thousands of wilderness parks within the county, and Malibu Creek Stae Park is jusylt one of several huge open spaces.

Diversity is a strength.
@USArmy Lt. Col. Dennis Han, the 1st Asian American commander for @DLAMIL Korea, grew up hearing stories of the #KoreanWar. It gave him a great sense of pride
Dignified Transfer.
Service members assigned to the @dodpaa transport the remains of @USArmy Cpl. Luther Herschel Story during a dignified transfer ceremony at @JointBasePHH. Story was posthumously awarded the #MedalofHonor for actions during the #KoreanWar. https://t.co/kzsUPR50Dx

Centurion tanks of the 8th King's Royal Irish Hussars waiting to cross the #ImjinRiver during the #KoreanWar.
The regiment formed part of the British 29th Infantry Brigade and would be heavily involved in the Battle of the Imjin River (22–25 April 1951).

Thinking of my late dad, who served in the #KoreanWar as a Sig and my late uncle who served in WW2’s Z Special #ANZAC #ANZACDAY
We made up with communist #Vietnam and let them make our products. We make most of our stuff in communist #China even though they were directly fighting us in the #KoreanWar
Why can’t we make up with #Cuba and rehabilitate it, instead of keeping our thumb on it? Call me naive, but I don’t get it. Is the anti-Cuban lobby that powerful?

포탄 맞으면 어떻게 되는지 알아요? 조그맣게 갈비 조각이 나요. 사람이 분해돼 버리고 아무것도 없어요. 펑 하고 터지고 나서 가 보면
(손바닥을 반절쯤 붙잡아 보이며) 나무에 창자 조각 요만큼 걸려 있고 살 토막 요만큼 걸려 있고 그래요.
포탄 맞으면 아무것도 없어요…. 버린 게 아니라
(시체를) 찾을 수가 있어야 버리죠.
(영화 "고지전"을 보았느냐는 질문에)…그런데 그건 애들 장난이지.
