Yo! Yo! It’s that time of the week again–time for the History Junkie’s Weekly History Wrap-Up. A week after North Korea’s attack on Yeonpyeong Island, Dan Miller at the Opinion Forum brings us a very insightful piece on relations between North Korea, China, Russian and the U.S., then (Korean War era) and now.
Some 60 years ago, Communist Chinese soldiers crossed the North Korean border en masse, entering the Korean War. Continuing with the Korean theme, Andrew Salmon offers a piece on the Red Army’s “human bullets.”
How about a look into World War II technology?
Or maybe some reminders of the Cold War, via PastreUnited?
And finally, Dr. Beachcombing examines Jean Hill, an eyewitness to JFK’s assassination, and her ever-evolving account.
Til next week. Auf Wiedersehen.
