KOREAN WAR 1950 1953

THE FORGOTTEN WAR
KOREAN WAR 1950 1953
On the 25 June 1950, North Korean troops invaded South Korea. The United Nations was quick to respond and immediately encouraged its members to support the South. Many countries sent troops including the USA, Britain, Australia, Canada, India, New Zealand and South Africa. UN Forces were quick to drive the North Koreans back into the North and up to the Yalu river, the border between China and North Korea. China immediately entered the war and pushed UN forces back into the South. The opposing armies faced each other in trenches little more than a mile apart. Armistice negotiations began in July 1951 but with little success. It wasn't until 27 July 1953 than an armistice was signed agreeing that Korea was to remain a divided country.

@TheMrpunisherman The Battle of Mactan on April 27, 1521, is celebrated as the earliest reported resistance of the natives in the Philippines against foreign invaders. Lapu-Lapu, a Chieftain of Mactan Island, defeated Christian European explorers led by the Portuguese navigator Ferdinand Magellan

@TheMrpunisherman Lapu-Lapu appears on the official seal of the Philippine National Police and as the main design on the defunct 1-centavo coin circulated in the Philippines from 1967-1974
