I am a retired public school administrator and have been an active supporter of Mr. Obama; as a member of the the Korean War Association and Army veteran of the Korean Conflict(I was a 60 mm mortarman with C company, 9th Regiment, 2nd Division)I felt deeply disappointed when the President spoke of the World War 2 veterans,Vietnam veterans and veterans of the Iraq and Afganistan War, but nary a word about the multitude of casualties of the Korean War. Shame on him!
