Korean War pictures

 To mark the sixty year anniversary of the armistice that ended the fighting in Korea, Soldiers' Memorial Military Museum staff will be posting on its Facebook page a Korean War picture with its original caption every day in 2013.  All the pictures/captions that will be posted are from the William Rodgers collection at the museum -- as donated on behalf of William Rodgers (USMC, Korea) by his daughter in July of 2012.

This project, called "Somewhere in Korea:  Photographs from the William Rodgers Collection at Soldiers' Memorial Military Museum," was made possible by the work of volunteers at the museum:  Rhiannon Coe, Tom DePriest, Sam Moore, Roxanna Palmer, and Rachel Winston.
