The Korean war or the 'Forgotten War' is different because of the circumstances and the way it was fought. In 1950 North Korea invaded South Korea this was also the first time the United Nations was put into practice. I guess you could say it was different because this was the first war where controversial thinking saved the United Nations 'butts' like the landings at Inchon but at the end of the day it really wasn't that different just because they used the same kind of equipment as they did in World War 2.
