Yeah, the Turkish Brigade was one of the hardest pressed of the UN's forces in the Korean War. Took heavy casualties, hard missions, very highly decorated. I imagine those men have been through the wringer.
Sure, but numerous South Korean and UN Forces are alive because they chose to undertake the arduous tasks they did.
