Soldiers make their endless, ghostly walk on patrol at the Korean War Memorial in Washington, D.C. Today (June 25) marks the 60th anniversary of the day North Korean troops invaded South Korea — a conflict that officially hasn’t ended between the two Koreas.
The Defense Department website has a series of articles and striking photos commemorating the “Forgotten War” that ended for the U.S. in 1953 — although thousands of U.S. troops are still stationed in South Korea and North Korea continues to be an unpredictable adversary with a developing missile and nuclear weapons strategy.
