Transcription
I really do think that, what goes through my mind is the time I spent over there some people say well it’s not worth being there, like now in the Middle East, is it worth being there? In Korea, I would say, that the time spent, the United Nations spent there it was time well spent. Korea, really, it’s got peace ever since. They got north and south but they’re living and they are very prosperous people. And I feel that the time we paid over there we really, shall we say, accomplished what we went over there to accomplish and it’s still in good shape and it’s still working today, that’s sixty odd years later. So I would say, yes, I feel proud that I was part of that.
