The following comments on "Korea Remembered" have been provided by Ron Cashman:

The book mentioned above can be fully accessed and read in our Korean War site ( privately funded ), by going to our site located at

www.kmike.com/oz/album.htm  

which, in itself, is a worthwhile study of that nasty war. Second in casualties pro rata only to WW1, (this story of "the forgotten war" is) told by the veterans with historical backup - not hysterical claptrap. For students of Australia's wartime commitments, it is surely worthy of a prominent link!

 We got on with our lives after the war, and didn't get into the extensive public relations machinations that others did. Our service people were all volunteers for Australia's interests at the time.
