By its end, some thirty-six thousand five hundred American troops died fighting the three year war in Korea. Six thousand of them were lost in the first winter alone when Chinese troops outmaneuvered and out-manned the U.S. forces - despite the boasts of General MacArthur that they would be home by Christmas.

Guests:

Stanley Weintraub, author of A Christmas Far From Home: an epic tale of courage and survival during the Korean War
Mitchell Lerner, Associate Professor of History and Director of the Institute for Korean Studies at The Ohio State University
