  • Wolfhoun-O Reflections V
    WOLFHOUN-O REFLECTIONS V We're moving right along with our tales of the people and events which have made, and continue to make, the Wolfhounds such a unique organization. Just back from Sinai after a six month "holiday" with the Second Battalion is SSG Rob Stewart .. a big help in the past and sure to be one again. He has already breathed life into what appeared on the surface to be a boring, humdrum tour. We're proud of the Battalion's record there! We're also grateful to SOT Ralph Strickland, First Battalion's chaplain's assistant, for his help. We've been hearing from a few more Wolfhounds ... and have already used some of their stories. The history of the regiment is downright fascinating, especially when you get down to the individual level. And speaking of individuals, say a prayer for that great Wolfhound Colonel Lewis Millett ... he's a bit under the weather. If you have any reflections you'd like to share with other Wolfhounds, send 'em along. We'll try to publish them.

  • Newsletter Volume XVIII
    Olde Towne November 2019 Post-Dispatch Volume XVIII GREAT KNIFE STORIES IN HISTORY THE LAST GREAT BAYONET CHARGE IN US HISTORY I recently had the wonderful opportunity to visit that National Infantry Museum at Fort Benning, in Columbus, Georgia. It is an incredible facility, with far too much to review here. But there was one exhibit called the “Last 100 Yards” that will leave you speechless. One of the many features is the story of Captain Lewis Millett’s Bayonet Attack during the Korean War. Here is the article from the National Infantry Museum’s website: On February 7, 1951, Millett led his Soldiers from Easy Company, 2D Battalion, 27th Infantry Regiment, 25th Infantry Division atop Hill 180 near Soam-Ni, Korea. With only bayonets and hand grenades, the company fought a hand-to- hand assault against heavy opposing fire. Millett and his Soldiers used their bayonets with such lethality that the enemy fled in disbelief. Even after he was wounded by grenade fragments, CPT Millett refused to be evacuated until the mission was secure. President Harry Truman later presented CPT Millett with the Medal of Honor in July 1951. Millett, a WWII, Korean and Vietnam Veteran rose to the rank of Colonel. He died in November 2009. Olde Towne Cutlery 4320 Settendown Village Rd, Suite 700 Cumming, GA 30041 Millett, along with his weapon, the bayonet, is the perfect representation of the Infantry’s role of importance in the last 100 yards of any battle. Although the last major American bayonet charge was during the Korean War, the bayonet remains in military training.

  • Excerpts About SLA Marshall (SLAM)
    16 ABOUT FACE could afford to tell the truth, make an error, or admit to ignorance.” When John F. Kennedy decided to commit large numbers of American advisers to South Vietnam, Hackworth volunteered at once—and was startled to be turned down. He had too much combat experience. Too much? Yes, he was told, the role of the American adviser was not to seek combat but to train the Vietnamese Army to seek combat, and therefore combat veterans were not needed, not desired. This seemed an oddly fastidious concept—war with kid gloves, let’s not dirty our hands or theirs—and of course was abandoned as the Communists continued to advance and the Vietnamese Army to collapse. There were successive tours in South Vietnam—including a remarkable stint with S. L. A. Marshall, the military writer whose work must now be examined afresh—and Hackworth’s disgust and pessimism grew with each tour. He found the Army lying to itself and to everyone else. The Pentagon seemed to be treating the war as the occasion for career management of its officers, every lieutenant colonel entitled to a battalion, every colonel to a brigade, and never mind the officer’s qualifications. Meanwhile, the war was being lost, buried in an avalanche of bogus statistics and false promises of progress. Finally, the American command initiated the cowardly and murderous foray into Cambodia, where ARVN battalions were shredded as the frightened and ill-prepared paper tigers they were. Hackworth gave his pessimistic after-action report to senior American commanders and was told to sit down and shut up.

  • Not Forgotten: the Korean War in American Public Memory, 1950-2017
    NOT FORGOTTEN: THE KOREAN WAR IN AMERICAN PUBLIC MEMORY, 1950-2017 A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Levi Fox May 2018 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Seth Bruggeman, Temple University Department of History Signature_______________________________________Date_______________ Dr. Hilary Iris Lowe, Temple University Department of History Signature_______________________________________Date_______________ Dr. Jay Lockenour, Temple University Department of History Signature_______________________________________Date_______________ Dr. Carolyn Kitch, Temple University Department of Media and Communication Signature_______________________________________Date_______________ ii ABSTRACT The “forgotten war” is the label most frequently used to recall the conflict that took place in Korea from June 25, 1950 to July 27, 1953, with variations of this phrase found in museum exhibitions and monuments across the country. Since the widespread presence of so many mentions of Korea clearly demonstrates that the Korean War is not forgotten, this project critically evaluates several forms of public memory (including museum exhibitions, historical scholarship, films and television shows, state and local monuments, and memorial infrastructure including bridges, highways, buildings, and trees) in order to explore how the war has come to be called forgotten. This project also seeks to examine the foreign policy issues of labeling the Korean War as
