To what extent the 1950–53 Korean War is still “forgotten” is debatable, given the large, and still growing, body of literature in the English language world. ¹ To borrow from Allan R. Millett’s provocative description, the “forgotten war” has actually been “remembered ‘enough’” (Millett 2010: 608), with prominent scholars diverting their attention to peripheral, or non-military, issues such as the background and experiences of the non-combatants and ramifications of the war (Stueck 2002, Millett 2002).
