>>64239705You can't have everything, man.
so much forgotten kino
>>64239696>not a brother warIt's literally Koreans fighting each other and committing atrocities the whole time. Shut the fuck up. Also, who west of St. Petersburg uses the term "brother war?"
>>64239759NTA but they're korean so they're bugs, they have no concept of brotherly love.
>>64239696A very forgettable war. Idk why anyone finds it interesting. Chinese successfully zerg'd until they took heavy casualties and implemented a cease fire. That's really all there happened nothing more but lots of death and poor strategic/tactical decisions from both sides. Most people want to hear cool stories not much cool is said about this snooze cruise.
>>64239696the war is underrated but the mountainous terrain was absolutely brutal, especially in winter, and the war absolutely was a political retardfest at the high level if it technically still being ongoing somehow failed to tip you off
>>64239800>>64239791>Political fuck-ups. Korea destroyed Truman's presidency. Ironically, LBJ was terrified of Vietnam doing the same thing to him, so he took a series of steps that in the long run would make Vietnam worse.
>>64239696Its like WWII DLC where we get to see a lot of the cool shit that was late to the party show up with several classic plane and tank designs getting their last hurrah. Pretty cool war, however due to the retarded (not in a fun way) politics and the weak sauce ending its a 7/10, though I'll bump it to an 8 because my grandpappy fought in it
It definitely had one of the coolest air wars. Saber vs MiG is about the most perfect match-up in the history of air combat. The B-29 raids were absolutely apocalyptic. Post-war super props got to enjoy ground attack heaven. IL2 Korea please be good
>>64239696It was a boring mix of WW2 and WW1 tactics, lacked the sound track and exotic backdrop of Nam
>>64239759The korean war was basically a moba where the USSR and US were the summoners, the Koreans where the creeps on both sides and the Chinese were the super minions that got unleashed when the Busan inhibitor was destroyed
>>64239696You'd get bum-rushed by thousands of suicidal Chinamen at night and not even know how to aim your gun (and then they'd all die anyway)
It had no real interesting leaders besides Ridgeway (McArthur had become a completely one-note retard by this point) and no huge risks or shocking upsets in tactics or technology; it was basically a brood war TvT match played by two equally skilled players that just sputtered out in a stalemate

If MacArthur had been more careful, could he have ended up with a small North Korea as a buffer zone along the Yalu River?
>>64240033Maybe, but if he didn't leave his troops completely exposed as they were sweeping north korea the chinese wouldn't be able to retake it regardless. UN had no plans about occupying the north anyway so it'd be handed over to south Koreans at best to deal with their sovietized brethren.However the real best case solution would've been nuking soviets the moment they tried to chime in and ending cold war altogether.
>>64240033If truman was more based we could've had less chinamen fucking up everything on the planet.
>>64240050>UN had no plans about occupying the north anyway so it'd be handed over to south Koreans at best to deal with their sovietized brethren.They could probably reconsider if they had to fight off chinese attacks over it for some time though, if only just to deny this land to chinks and teach them a lesson.
>>64239696Temps hit literally -40C/-40F on the front multiple times. It was a record cold front not seen since.
>>64240059MacArthur's nuclear plan would have killed Koreans and Mongols in Inner Mongolia.He wanted to drop a cobalt belt on the Yalu and Tumen rivers, which would also kill Koreans in Yanbian.He wanted to drop nuclear bombs in ghe chicken's neck, which would massacre ethnic Mongols in Inner Mongolia.China later did both of these anyway.In the 1967-1969 massacres, many Mongols and Koreans were tortured to death and raped by Han Red guard cadres on the basis of their ethnicity in the Inner Mongolia incident and massacres in Yanbian.The CCP raped and massacred hundreds of thousands of ethnic Mongols in Inner Mongolia during the "Inner Mongolia incident" as well as killing and raping ethnic Koreans in Yanbian Prefecture.They literally sent trains filled with Korean corpses to the North Korean side of the border.Both of these massacres were during the 1960s and done on an ethnic basis.

>>64240003>>chinese agitprop hasnt changed in 70 yearsSome flavor of "Why are you here in the mud bleeding and dying in/for [insert country or cause or leader] when you could be safe at home with your [family/wife/gf]" dates to at least the 19th century as a propaganda technique and reached its peak during the two world wars.

>>64240590While similar, the squints added an anticapitalist bit to it which is unique to commies. More my point was that it is literally the exact same lines they use now.
>>64240059>>64240033Turtledove wrote a series where Truman allows McArthur to use nukes in korea which sparks off WW3.Which is interesting because I rarely ever see ww3 scenarios not set in the 80s or later on
I'm pretty sure I am reincarnated from a Marine in the Korean war. There is a picture of a guy at chosin with my exact likeness, even my parents thought it was me larping. I think it explains my life choices, my wife is Korean, and I took the same career path, and this was years before I saw the picture. Strange world.
>>64240050>so it'd be handed over to south Koreans at best to deal with their sovietized brethrencome the fuck on now.The norks at that point had been a state for 5, 7 years at best. They're more japanese than soviet.
>>64240663It wouldn't spark a ww3 if it's immediately ended, like it would have during that time. Soviets had no chance of stopping US bombers without SAMs and their own nuclear project netted them a single digit number of prototype-tier nukes carried by their B-29 copies. At worst they would load a plane and manage to nuke Berlin or Hamburg out of spite while their FRG-deployed forces throw themselves at NATO using their remaining supplies and ammo.I've actually researched the topic quite a lot and made a number of posts in related threads over the years here about it. Some of them are more nuanced and interesting but the 50s and to a lesser extent 80s that everyone is obsessed with are honestly not.
>>64240721No way show it. What field of work?
>>64239696Nobody wanted to be in fucking Korea.
>>64240756Soviets were pretty adapt at finding and killing any intellectual, community leader or exemplary person in a country they overtook in a matter of days and always seeking and profiling them beforehand even when their invasion plans were a total slapdash. They could probably be fixed but the damage was done for sure.
>>64240764This is the pic, but I won't give "myself" up, I was in the Marine infantry, I do something else now though.
>>64240721>I took the same career path as a marineSurely not even a marine can be stupid enough to join the corps twice.
>>64240807I fly now, but I'm glad I did it.
>>64240821>I fly nowFor crayola airlines?
>>64240842Nah, still .mil
>>64240821Army warrant or some other service with a degree? Asking because I'm at the end of my contract and thinking about getting out to finish my degree and then commission to fly. 11b btw
>>64241181Nah, but I almost went warrant for the Army. I got my bachelors while I was (cheapest degree mill that was recognized) and commissioned. One of my buddies made the switch about a year or so before me and is flying apaches now though.
>>64241200While I was still in*, I considered WOFT, but at the time I was already getting close with my degree, so I decided to stick it out for chance at getting something with a pointy nose.
>>64241209I'm not sure about the future of attack helicopters with all the seats for apaches getting cut in the pipeline as of now, so I've been leaning more towards commissioning. Also going back and forth on reupping because the whole infantry thing has not been what I was promised when I enlisted. What service would you recommend for trying to fly jets, it seems the navy is a more sure chance for anything in aviation, the airforce is difficult through ots and I know nothing about the marines other than I'd have to do more ranger school style shit as part of commissioning.
>>64239696The communists mudered a realtive of mine there, they just mudered him and the rest of the village he was in, stuck them in a room crowded in, old people, women, kids and killed them all.
>>64241238I think Navy or Marines is your best option. I'm not 100% up to speed on USAF, but in general their O recruiters (when I could even reach them) had said to expect an 18+ month wait to go to OTS, and it was my understanding that they don't guarantee a pilot slot like the Navy or Marines does. With that said, your prospects of doing rotary wing in the USN/USMC is likely since we have more of them. As far as commissioning through the Marines, you'll need to go to TBS, which is an infantry-lite course, but I wouldn't equate it to ranger school. Having said that from the Navy side, jets are as expected highly desirable, but theres a lot of guys who want to do P-8s and rotary wing, so that might thin out the competition. I will say you can pretty reliably get an aviator slot if you score well on the ASTB, I'd recommend checking out Air Warriors for more. Myself, and most, if not all of my (Navy) classmates, got selected immediately without going to board because of our scores, mostly because we all applied late in the fiscal year after regular quotas had run dry.
>>64239696Isn’t Korea subtropical for like half the year?
>>64240807Once a marine, always a marine applies to any subsequent lives a marine may live
>>64241292Only the Navy has you select a designation before going to OCS, which has the upside of you not going and hoping to get a slot but knowing that you're going as a pilot, though there is no distinction between rotary and jet during entry so it is a crapshoot there.
>>64239696>a war fought with the best upgrades of WWII equipment and equipment designed for WWII but entered service too late for itkino
>>64239744We fail Vietnam and then fail Korea. Then all we did was beat up small countries. We need to act like we are, we’re strong but we haven’t put up a good fight in a long time
>>64241292I appreciate the information, especially regarding the prospects of getting fighter/bomber as most of the people I've talked to about this have kinda glossed over that aspect of the pipeline which I kinda assumed was just survivorship bias. Do you enjoy what you do? My current issue with being a retard with a gun is not being able to do the job. I've deployed but its always just been boring and not actually participating in a conflict other than being the target of incoming munitions. I guess I'm worried about investing all this effort and time into becoming an operational aviator and never getting to conduct real missions or blow things up. I know this is just a luck of the draw thing with timing and the military will always just be training cycle after training cycle, but I'd like to know if you enjoy your current work.
>>64241325>We fail Vietnam and then fail Korea>Wefuck off nigger. the Korean war was first and we didn't lose.
>>64241371Sure thing man>Do you enjoy what you do?I'm only a student, but after reflection, every day has been a blast. Its nice just having to worry about yourself and not be a tard wrangler for the time being. With that said, it is pretty tiring, I've done back to back flights each day (minus weekends) for the past 10 days or so, and it is definitely exhausting. I can't really speak to the fleet side of things yet, but in the red sea it seemed like fighter pilots and rotary wing pilots were getting some out there. The Navy uses the Seahawk for attack a lot more than I would have thought.

>>64240760The war actually lasts something like 2-3 years and is mostly conventional because neither side has any magazine debth with their nukes so you have long stretches of conventional battles followed by a few cities getting nuked every once in a while.They eventually locate Stalin's bunker and vaporise him

>>64243744Yet the Chinese glorify their suffering and shortcomings, see vidrel from their most expensive movie ever made.
>>64244126I know that the idea is to draw a contrast between the harsh conditions that their people endured and what that says about them, versus the relative luxury of the UN forces, but they didn't have to show the Americans in such a positive light. It's a pretty interesting choice for such a nationalist endeavour, not going full propaganda film in that regard at least.
>>64244162>but they didn't have to show the Americans in such a positive lightTV and movie producers have to be a bit careful how they depict foreigner countries, if the CCP is trying to warm relations with a country at a certain time, a very negative depiction of that country may result in you production not being shown, you don't want to be accused of damaging the foreign policy goals of the CCP. Japan is always fair game though.

>>64241374If we had just stopped at the 38th Parallel after repelling the invasion and declared victory, sure. But once we invaded the North and Dugout Doug got the army caught with it's pants down and fucked in the ass it became a quagmire and eventually an embarrassment, which is why it's been largely memory-holed in the popular consciousness.
>>64240590I think you're slightly off the mark, it's usually not about being home with a family. Soldiers are generally too young to have a family of their own. It's usually about the other men, usually richer older men outside the draft age, staying at home and fucking the women that you could have had and will never have because you're dying at 19. Like straight up incelposting but old fashioned and actually true for every poor draftee that caught a bullet.At least it used to be like that in all the old leaflets, now Ukraine and Russia are throwing 55 year olds at each other. The modern propaganda leaflet is probably saying your daughter is on Polish Tinder and the army will give you crutches while your brother who fled to Germany gets a titanium hip.(The only Russian leaflets I've actually seen were mega retarded and tried to justify why they were correct in the war instead of any of this time honored psychology).

>>64248656Read carefully again.Mao had a paternal nephew AND a second son, and his grandson Mao Xinyu was born to the second schizophrenic son Mao Anqing.Mao Zedong's paternal nephew Mao Yuanxin was fully mentally sound and an adult when Mao Zedong died. Mao Yuanxin did not have schizophrenia.He was blocked from succeeeding his uncle in 1976, and he is still alive today.If the Communist party allowed family rule, the nephew Mao Yuanxin would be ruling right now and the grandson Mao Xinyu would be waiting to succeed him.Mao Xinyu doesn't have schizophrenia either.>>64248763Jiang Qing is not part of the Mao family, and not the mother of either of his sons. She also didn't succeed Mao, she was part of the gang of four and only wielded power WHILE HE WAS ALIVE. He appointed her to that position.She was immediately arrested after his death.Women are part of their father's families and don't take their husband's surnames.Mao Yuanxin wanted to become party chairman and succeed Mao Zedong,he wasn't allowed to.Mao Yuanxin was arrested on October 1976 for being a supporter of the Gang of Four and sentenced to 17 years in prison He was only released from jail in October 1993, and now lives off a pension.Internal party politics stopped Mao Yuanxin from taking power and holding the place for Mao Xinyu.Families in China are made out of paternal relatives with the same surname.
>>64248656>>64248914I explicitly mentioned Mao's nephew (his brother's son) as successor because I knew some idiot would bring up the second son having schizophrenia.If thw party allowed hereditary rule, Mao's nephew would rule as placeholder for the grandson born to the second son.Both nephew and grandson were mentally sound and were members of the Mao family.Mao would have banned his eldest son from going to Korea if he was the only one from the next generation.He had a nephew, cousins and other relatives all from the Mao family.The Communist party factions were never going to allow hereditary rule.
>>64248656>>64248763>>64248927China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokeswoman Mao Ning is a relative of Mao Zedong from his hometown. She still works for the MFA now.She was born in 1972 to her father Mao Yifa, a younger cousin of Mao Zedong's father Mao Yichang.Mao Yifa was also of age to succeeed Mao Zedong in 1976.None of the party factions would allow any member of the Mao family to rule after Mao Zedong died.They even added it as an official party rule banning hereditary succession to stop Mao Yuanxin and all his cousins.
The North Korean party by contrast doesn't have tens of millions of members with factions controlling entire provinces.North Koeea itself is the size of a small Chinese province.In China, if Mao Yuanxin tried to seize power, entire party factions across multiple provinces would oust him and scream about how hereditary succession is against communism.
>>64239744Korea was such a tease. Had America not been afraid of escalating the war and getting the Soviets involved, it really could have been something.
Kim Il-sung informed Stalin and Mao Zedong of his intention to invade and received their approval.Soviet and China could have provided the military support North Korea needed to conquer the peninsula, but what were they thinking?
>>64241374>didn't all out war>huge restrictions>basically won every battle with left hand tied behind the back>technically wasn't even a war>china claimed to have a million man army>attacked flooded all sides>"we are not retreating we are advancing in another direction"we see you support traitors
>>64248995>didn't all out warnigger we killed 20% of North Korea's population during the strategic bombing campaign. Over 85% of buildings were destroyed, and there wasn't a single building taller than two stories left standing in the entire country. By 1953 pilots were just dumping their bombs in the ocean because there were literally no more buildings to bomb.
>>64247264https://warfarehistorynetwork.com/article/americans-faced-blown-out-bridge-during-retreat-to-38th-parallel/> Of course, the cold was devastating to the Chinese as well as the Americans. They were unprepared for the most extreme weather and their logistical support was sparse.> Consequently, many Chinese units were captured intact by the Marines because they were physically incapable of moving and their weapons had frozen up. Some Chinese surrendered with their hands frozen to their rifles; Marines had to break the prisoners’ fingers simply to dislodge the weapons from their hands. > On the attack south from Koto, a Marine unit found Chinese in foxholes surrendering in such frozen condition that the Marines merely lifted them out of their holes and placed them on the road to thaw out.
>>64242468US had 300 nukes by the beginning of Korea, that's more than enough to double tap every major logistical node and population center in the soviet union, with a couple left for the chinese. Moscow's deep reinforced subway stations weren't opened prior to the end of Korean war either so they don't even have the benefit of forcing US to do ground bursts over the city. It's really not even comparable.Soviets didn't even have radars that could track US bombers at high altitude prior to their adoption of the CPS-6 copy they started making based on atomic spy docmuments just in 1949 and not reaching comprehensive numbers until 1952. So there's a high chance that soviets wouldn't even know what hit them most of the time.
>>64244052Korea didn't involve mass conscription(not that most of them were fighting in Vietnam) and was relatively shorter so fewer people got maimed and wounded compared to vietnam. It also didn't have a completely hostile media industry vilifying the soldiers at every step.
>>64242642Lmao i remember you asking this
>>64249931The Korean War was massively unpopular in the US, probably even moreso than Vietnam as far as how mainstream the discontent was. WW2 veterans trying to raise their families were getting recalled back to active duty, and the general public couldn't understand why the casualty rates were so high for what was advertised by the government as a police action in an impovershed shithole corner of the world, especially as the news of communist atrocities and brainwashing made its way back to the US. Before the war there wasn't even a linguistically agreed upon translation of the word Korea to English.

Russian estimates cited in South Korean reports put civilian casualties at 1.2 million (including 282,000 killed in bombings and 796,000 missing or fled), with total war losses potentially up to 2.5North Korea needs more vetting : (I wonder about the million man army and if that number was closer.

>>64242205HEY MOTHERFUCKER! My old drinking buddy served in that one and goddamn it he landed and repaired runways and actually heard some explosions. Another guy's toolbox caught a wild round too so he was literally fucked in a hellscape war zone!!one!
>>64240663>I rarely ever see ww3 scenarios not set in the 80s or later onIt was the best if times, it was the worst of times...
>>64243789Yeah. It totally stops at single payer healthcare. They never talk about incremental gains. And single payer is just, wow anon, it's somethin! Not a working something but any day now, on the 5 year plan, our math says... WEIRD! Guns got outlawed!Nah we ain't actually stupid man.
>>64239791Among many other things, It’s most notable for being the war that made America take up the mantle of world police. The drawdown after WW2 was immediately back to prewar levels but after the massive rearmament for Korea, it never drew back down again.
>>64239696No war is fun.
>>64239992I’ll literally lick Trumps and Musks asshole if it kills communists. The world is made more holy with every commie removed from our life.
>>64240033If had been less careful he could have gotten us in a war with China and Russia, the thought of which gives me an erection, but perhaps the best move was to let them fall out of love after Stain died instead of bonding harder through allied war efforts.
>>64240192Mongols were commie decades before Chinks. Based
>>64240624There are lots of men that find war fun. Even the boots doing the killing and dying. Don’t think I’m one but war is indeed fun. I can’t find the quote of the Vietnam soldier who expresses this and those other vets from the same conflict that shamefully admitted they felt the same thing.
>>64239791This summary completely glosses over how the US allowed their fighting forces to massively deteriorate following WW2 and doing stupid shit like sending M24s to get raped en masse by late war T-34s.
>>64241300This is just about the dumbest comment I’ve seen in a while and I don’t know where to start to help you. Learn more about climate and geography. Subtropical doesn’t mean “hot”. Subtropical is a location, not a summer temperature. South Korea is subtropical at 35 degrees N at Busan. But the famous bits of the fighting stories happened in the winter in the mountains of North Korea much closer to the cold continental Asian climate. It was also just colder than normal that winter. Look up where the Chosin Reservoir is
>>64257835They did what should have sent the US into its Golden Era by near completely de-militarizing. Unfortunately we stopped WW2 prematurely around Saxony.

>>64247158Dumbass we had to cross the 38th. That's like storming -Juno Beach and stopping at the border of Germany. Hitler wont stop his war efforts. It was Vietnam that was the unwinnable goal.
>>64239992They weren't wrong desu

>famously durable aircraft capable of surviving tons of battle damage with high bomb capacity and 8 guns>high altitude escort fighter that can be taken out of action by a rifle caliber bullet to the radiator>deploy the latter in korea for ground attackWhy did Uncle Sam do this? Is he stupid?
>>64239988Source?
You'll have your chance to prove yourselves again soon, yankee.This time Norks will show no mercy.
>>64260475
>>64244162Most Chinese think Americans are spoiled idiots rather than evil. They think the Japanese are evil.
>>64261225Wasn't the P-51 mostly used by allied nations like South Africa or Korea while the US relied on A-1 Skyraiders?
>>64261756Americans committed more war crimes during the Korean War than the Japanese did in decades of occupation.
>>64243602I am now demolalized.
>>64239992>>64240003>why die for danzig?>why die for Seoul??>why die for ukraine???>why die for the baltics/taiwan???? the more things change the more they stay the same. only real depressing part about it is that the demoralization propaganda is order of magnitude more effective today thanks to the porous and open western social media. Plenty of idiots buy into the slopaganda if enough bots spoon feed it to them for comparison back in the korea days all you could really do were pirate radio broadcasts, underground newspapers and leaflets thrown from planes/shells
>>64240192>In the 1967-1969 massacres, many Mongols and Koreans were tortured to death and raped by Han Red guard cadres on the basis of their ethnicity in the Inner Mongolia incident and massacres in Yanbian.>The CCP raped and massacred hundreds of thousands of ethnic Mongols in Inner Mongolia during the "Inner Mongolia incident" as well as killing and raping ethnic Koreans in Yanbian Prefecture.>They literally sent trains filled with Korean corpses to the North Korean side of the border.>Both of these massacres were during the 1960s and done on an ethnic basis. these were the tip of the iceberg. emperor mao became a fanboy of pol pot in his twilight years and wanted to perform a second cultural devolution in his empire modeled after cambodias "year zero". imagine 1/3 of everybody trapped in the insane emperors domain getting hammered to death because bullets are too expensive
>>64247236ukranians are telling vantiks how nigs and chechens are fucking their women. which is actually true in the rear kek
>>64261882The more things change, the more they stay the same.
>>64261756and then they go on and force organ harvest concentration camp inmates. then cry rivers about unit 731
>>64257835Military spending was a bit of a nono after WW2 in every country that still held a vote, for some unknowable reason
>>64240663this hysteria about nooks=WW3 is stupid in itself. Even if they used some warheads there changs didn't have anything to throw back and no way vatniks were going to risk getting bombed themselves in muscovia for fucking korea.Hell even today changs could invade vladivostok and all the big scary bombs stay in their hangars. Because the same logic applies for far away colonies like amur-vladivostok/sakhalin/kurills/kamchatka etc. Since changs today can throw back everything thrown at them. You know, as soon as they pump fuel instead of water in the rocket tanks
>>64261860>comrade, the newly-arrived Choson troops have already successfully adapted to Russian military culture>but there is a nuance...
>>64261888combination of war fatigue and fifth column infiltration. its actually quite disturbing the extent of communist infiltration in the institutions that were active fifth columnists for the hostile foreign empires most famous is the manhattan program and lend lease to soviet union during ww2. but less known is the circumstances how brits handed over their state of the art jet engine for nothing to the SU which immediately copied it and stuffed it into the mig-15. Even Stalin couldn't believe the stupidity of it. Which then went on to kill americans in the korean war
>>64261225yes, but what about two P-51s smooshed together? More stronk, more engines, and more dakka.>>64261784The F-51 was used as a stopgap by the USAF during the first few years of the war until they could shit out enough jet fighters to counter the new MiG 15s. The USAF generally used older equipment and kept all the fancy toys in Europe or in the US Air Defence Command in case the USSR fucked around. This actually worked out well at first, since the Mustangs were efficient enough to fly to Korea and back from Japan. Pilots stationed in Japan would literally wake up with their families, drive to work and spend the day firebombing Chinsects, then fly home and be back in time for dinner.
>>64261800nice photoshop, but we all know what really happened.
>>64239696They were doing air assault missions during the korean war. Honestly kind of crazy ti read abt
>>64262231Picrel: air assault team being ferried in an H-19 in 1951
>>64239864How many Chinamen did he get?
>>64239696What does "modern" mean? >the first modern warI've heard Korea, Vietnam, Desert Storm, Afghanistan, Iraq, Ukraine, and Gaza each described as "the first modern war".
>>64240663Who won?
>>64240806Marky Mark Wahlberg? I thought you did a tour of Vietnam?
>>64262406Well he did kill 4 men and hospitalized several dozen, he wasn't a very good cook
>>64243795You know the movie 300 wasn't real, right?
>>64249799What's the movie, bud?
>>64262447Your Granpappy's Frank Costanza?
>>64262432Don't forget WWI
