Smell the Gunpowder: The Land of the Morning Calm is a product of a five-year effort beginning in 2017. It is a collection of Korean conflict veterans’ own personal stories and firsthand accounts blended with historical content to include the Republic of Korea (South Korea) and the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (North Korea) perspective. It provides a snapshot of American military history in Korea from the end of World War II through the Cold War to include two Korean Conflicts (1950-1953) and (1966-1969). Smell the Gunpowder continues with the Singapore Summit 2018 (Singapore), the Hanoi Summit 2019 (Socialist Republic of Vietnam), and North Korea’s hostile threat of nuclear conflict, along with the economic and social impact of the coronavirus pandemic.
How easy it would have been to author a story of the conflicts based on records alone. The author chose to interview veterans who served not only in combat, but in the relative peace between the 1950s- and 1960s-armed conflict. Their firsthand accounts capture war, love, and peace.
The author is not entirely a stranger to Korea; he arrived there in April 1966, for a thirteen-month tour of duty. He was assigned to Company B (Forward) 508th U.S. Army Security Agency Group Camp Alamo, the "U.S. Army Northernmost Outpost," located north of the Imjin River, within view of the southern boundary line known as the South Tape of the Military Demarcation Line.
Smell the Gunpowder concludes on a cautiously optimistic note that peace on the Korean peninsula may be reached.
