KOREA BETWEEN THE WARS BOOK

About: Korea Between the Wars is both a memoir and a history. It is the story of a young enlisted man, the author, who served in South Korea from January 1947 through February 1948 at Camp Hillenmeyer, a former Japanese air base now Kunsan Air Force Base. The story is told with liberal use of excerpts from many of approximately two hundred letters written from Korea by the author to his family. The excerpts are linked together by recollections refreshed by the letters and by never-to-be-forgotten memories of the time.
