  • The Pueblo Incident
    The Pueblo Incident Held hostage for 11 months, this Navy crew was freed two days before Christmas One of Pueblo's crew (left) checks in after crossing the Bridge of No Return at the Korean Demilitarized Zone, on Dec. 23, 1968, following his release by the North Korean government. He is wearing clothing provided by the North Koreans. The Pueblo (AGER-2) and her crew had been captured off Wonsan on January 23, 1968. Note North Korean troops in the background. (Navy) On the afternoon of Jan. 23, 1968, an emergency message reached the aircraft carrier Enterprise from the Navy vessel Pueblo, operating in the Sea of Japan. A North Korean ship, the message reported, was harassing Pueblo and had ordered it to heave to or be fired upon. A second message soon announced that North Korean vessels had surrounded Pueblo, and one was trying to put an armed party aboard the American ship. By then it was clear something was seriously amiss, but Enterprise, which was operating 500 miles south of Wonsan, North Korea, was unsure how to respond. “Number one,” recalled Enterprise commanding officer Kent Lee, “we didn’t know that there was such a ship as Pueblo.…By the time we waited for clarification on the message, and by the time we found out that Pueblo was a U.S. Navy ship…it was too late to launch.” This confusion was replicated elsewhere. Messages had started to flood the nation’s capital as well, but with similar results. Inside the White House Situation Room, watch officer Andrew Denner quickly recognized the gravity of the incident and started making calls but could obtain little information.

Intelligence, Army Security Agency, Korean War Army/Army Reserves/Army National Guard, Career 2004 Wisconsin Veterans Museum Madison, Wisconsin OH 1004 1 OH 1004 Borden, Clifford C., Jr., (1930- ). Oral History Interview, 2004. Video Recording: 4 videorecordings (ca. 115 min.); ½ inch, color. Transcript: 0.1 linear ft. (1 folder). Military Papers: 0.1 linear ft. (1 folder). Abstract: Clifford C. Borden, Jr., a Summit, New Jersey native, discusses his career in the Army, including his service with the Army Security Agency during the Korean War. Borden touches on his awareness of World War II while growing up and his rough awareness of Korea. He discusses worrying about the draft because he was not getting very good grades in college and enlisting in the Army Security Agency. Borden mentions attending armored infantry basic training at Fort Knox (Kentucky) and radio traffic analysis school at Fort Devens (Massachusetts). Assigned to Supreme Headquarters in Tokyo, he talks about duties as the noncommissioned officer in charge of typing intelligence summaries. In 1953, Borden discusses requesting an inter-theater transfer and being sent to the Army Security Agency Headquarters in Seoul. He describes the destruction in Seoul, the use of dogs for meat, and the efforts of Korean civilians to earn money from GIs through black markets, prostitution, shoe shining, and pick-pocketing. He talks about handing out gum to Korean kids. Borden discusses how South Koreans made examples of spies by hanging them off bridges and of draft dodgers by shooting them.

    Part 1:Peace and Unification Q1 A138th On June 25th the KPA army crossed the 38th parallel with tanks and artillery and quickly started to overrun South Korea. The southern ROK forces were not as well for war and quickly. The North Koreans would have probably secured the peninsula if UN forces had not intervened. The US interest in Korea was mostly to keep Japan secure and limit the USSR’s. Initially, UN forces were driven back until they occupied only a small of the peninsula in South Korea. Eventually, the UN forces were able to the tide and almost took control of the entire peninsula until China decided to 1 The Korean Armistice Agreement was between the United Nations Command, the Korean People’s Army for North Korea and the Chinese People’s Volunteer Army. The Armistice Agreement supposed to be drafted soon after the Armistice Agreement was signed. However, a peace treaty still has not been reached and North and South Korea are still technically at war. Also, South Korea’s president Rhee never signed the Armistice Agreement because he not accept Korea as being divided. Rhee wanted to completely unify the peninsula but would be unable to do so without the support of the UN forces. Kim Il-Sung also did not want to sign an armistice, to cease. Another provision in the Q3 Armistice was the swapping of prisoners of war.

  • Redrawing the 151-Mile Border Between North and South Korea
    The Demilitarized Zone: Redrawing the 151-Mile Border Between North and South Korea THE DEMILITARIZED ZONE The demilitarized zone between North and South Korea is “one of the most closed and tightly controlled borders of the world” (Wastl-Walter, 4). The Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) is a 4-km-wide (2.5 mile), 250-km-long (151 mile) military buffer zone between North and South Korea. The DMZ is the first main case study of my larger ongoing research titled “border as urbanism.” The current form Dongsei Kim of the demilitarized zone was established after the Korean War Armistice Columbia University was signed between the United Nations and North Korea with China, some 60 years ago on July 27, 1953.1 WHY IS THE DMZ AS A CASE STUDY? The primary justification of the DMZ being the central case study in explor- ing the notion of “border as urbanism” is that it is one of the most extreme cases of a tightly closed and controlled border. In addition, it is one of the most heavily militarized borders in the world, one that withstood the fall of Communism and the end of the Cold War (Gelézeau, 325, 327). Despite this extreme impermeability, the DMZ’s inherent flows, processes, and reciproc- ities, over time clearly prove that borders are never static or fully closed. Furthermore, because of this extreme condition, the DMZ becomes the best illustration of comprehending the inherent porosities and malleability of borders. The second rationale of the DMZ as a case study is related to it being a rep- resentation of a conflict that is common among many nation-state border territories.
