Are Korean war veterans considered combat veterans?
The US VFW (Veterans of Foreign Wars) was established in 1899 by US Veterans of the Spanish-American War of 1898. The Spanish-American War of 1898 was the FIRST US war fought on foreign soil. Previous US wars had been fought on the North American Continent. The VFW is our "Oldest" existing Veterans Organization. GAR (Grand Army of the Republic) was our oldest veteran group, but died out when the last US Civil War Veteran died in the 20th Century. Korea is a foreign country. Therefore, it was a foreign war. US veterans of the Korean War can join the VFW. The last DECLARED WAR by the United States of America, WAS WORLD WAR TWO. The dawn of the ATOMIC AGE in August of 1945 has resulted in NO MORE DECLARED WARS; As a rule, declared wars USED to be total wars, and total wars can NO LONGER BE FOUGHT without risking "mutually assured destruction" by the use of nuclear weapons. Therefore, atomic age wars fought during the "Cold War" had to be fought as "Limited Wars" CONVENTIONAL weapons only; no nuclear weapons.
Why wasn't the Korean War successful?
The division of Korea was a temp
orary agreement between the U.S and the U.S.S.R after the second world war to keep a detanté between the rival nations. The North's Soviet influence, which wanted Korea to be unified under a communist regime, led by Kim Il-Sung opposed the South's democratic approach, with heavy influence from the U.S. The Korean War was a bloody, brutal war which at first, with the North's invasion, with help from China and the U.S.S.R, gained the majority of the South's territory, but with help from the U.S and their allies, the south then gained back control over their half while also capturing majority of the North. With all this the North gained control of their territory again to bring things back to square one, and to the division we have today. With millions dead and with nothing gained, I would have to say the Korean war was not a success.

Is North Korea 1 of 2 communist countries left?
Not quite, With North Korea straddled between China and the Soviet Union, Kim-Il-Sung often took a middle road between aligning himself with Marxist-Leninism or Maoism and over time North Korea has actually departed from both forms of mainstream Communism.
Before 1953, North Korea was heavily influenced by Stalinism and his Soviet benefactors. However, after Stalin was denounced as a counter-revolutionary, Kim Il Sung sided with China against the Soviet Union. Maoism did not work out for long for Kim, as the cultural revolution in China in 1967 was contradictory to Kim's wishes for stable dictatorship.
North Korea reestablished good relations with the Soviet Union under Brezhnev, who was a Neo-Stalinist, but Kim decided to keep both countries at an arms length by creating the Juche philosophy. Juche became Kim Il Sung's personal combination of extreme nationalism, militarism, totalitarian absolutism and godlike worship of Kim-Il-Sung himself. Kim eventually went against all communist tradition by promoting a divine monarchist philosophy which allowed Kim-Il-Sung to be succeeded by his son Kim-Jong-Il. Kim-Jong-Il has moved away from Communism even further, through his "Songun" or "Military First" policy, which states that the Korean Army is the driving force of the revolution.
The Songun policy blatantly contradicts all previous ideas of Marxism which state the the working class are the driving force of the revolution. As Kim-Jong-Il prepares to be succeeded by the third "Immortal Sun of Juche" of the Kim Dynasty, he has made altercations to the countries' constitution that remove all references to Communism as the state ideology.

Many programs require courses in practical skills such as curatorial training and organizational management.Research methods are emphasized throughout the course of study.
A conservation concentration is available with some art history degree programs, but some colleges require students to major in a separate art conservation program.Students of conservation learn techniques of preserving and restoring art using x-ray machines, microscopes, and various chemicals.A background in chemistry is often a necessary component of this degree. Conservation programs usually give students the option of specializing in a particular medium.
Art History vs. Art Criticism
Art criticism is often, but not always, studied separately from art history.Though art critics must be educated in art history, critics veer from historians by deciding the artistic value of the works they study.An art criticism degree program is likely to require as much analysis as research, and will likely have a stronger emphasis on theory.
Art History Degree Programs
Art history degree programs are widely available.Many online colleges offer art history degrees. The Art Institute of Pittsburgh, Academy of Art University, Westwood College Online, American Intercontinental University, and the International Academy of Design & Technology conveniently offer online art courses.

Conservationists find jobs in preservation labs and also work as instructors and consultants.Art critics often work on the staff of magazines and newspapers.Museums, galleries, and universities also hire art critics as curators and instructors.Also, art critics may also work as free-lancers writing for academic journals and writing exhibition catalogues.
