No list exists containing all the names of Bronze Star Medals awarded during the Korean War. The war lasted several years, and thousands of US military received the medal. Only a search of individual military records would reveal awarding of the BS Medal.

Communists believe that everyone is equal, for example, people can do any job they want without any qualifications.

However, Communism is doomed to failure as a leader is needed, and a leader is more powerful than everyone else.

Famous Communist leaders include Josef Stalin (USSR), Fidel Castro (Cuba) and Ho Chi Min (Vietnam)

stalemate ened when Germany fired The Ludendorff Offensive, a series of attacks. It lead to the furthest advance from 1914 to March 1918. But then Britain and France started to fight back and a couple of months later the Germans surrendered!

The most powerful of all organization within Republic of South Korea's military is the Royal Army of National Korea; which was orginally composed of both North and South Korean military agents prior to the separation of the two Koreas. It was established by the Royal Monarchy of Korea twice; once during the Sino Japanese war, endorsed secretly by the Chinese red communist government, and again during the Japanese occupation of Korea endorsed by the Japanese Royal Monarchy.

Truman inherited it. Communism existed well before WW2, and well before Truman became president. FDR and his vice president (Truman) knew they might have to fight the Communists sooner or later. As it turned out, Truman ended up fighting the Communists 5 years after FDR's death (President Roosevelt died in May 1945).

Truman STARTED his policy of containment because George Keenan (our diplomat in Moscow) sent him a message outling the way that the U.S. would be able to contain communism in the Soviet Union. The policy of containment was based off this first outline and it was initiated because we believed that if not stopped communism would take over the world slowly but surely, look at our belief of the Domino Effect in communism.

The Soviet Union was far from neutral. They gave a lot of aid to China and North Korea. Stalin was the leader of the world wide revolution. China and North Korea looked for Stalin's permission. There were also Soviet troops wearing Chinese or North Korean uniforms.

There were TWO CHINAS during the Cold War. Nationalist China on the island of Formosa, now called taiwan; and Mainland China, known & called Red China during the Cold War: The words Red China is in the United States 1969 dictionary. Red China entered the Korean War in 1950 after US/Allied Forces came too close to their border, when the allies INVADED NORTH KOREA. This is why the US did NOT invade NORTH VIETNAM during the Vietnam War. We didn't want the same thing to happen again.
