Korean War in Colour (2001)


Introduction

War Documentary hosted by Brett Barry and published in 2001.

Outline

Being that it was a short war which preceded the controversial Vietnam War, the Korean War gets downplayed in importance and is often ignored or brushed aside in history lessons. However, the civil war was an extremely important historical event which resulted in lasting changes for that country and several others. The Documentary captures this conflict in full colour, compiling newsreel and documentary footage (some of which has never been seen before) taken from 1950 to 1953.

Colour footage includes: The Inchon Invasion The rise and fall of Seoul The Naktong river campaign Winter at the Choisin reservoir The 1st Marine Division in action Flame throwers in action Bombing raid on a North Korean industrial complex Prisoners of war being captured Amphibious attack behind enemy lines.
