Civilians Helped At Great Risk

The Korean civilians again played a role in that they supplied us with food. The Korean women would come in and pick up laundry and they would do our laundry for us. We paid for that. It was, those people, it was amazing because they were coming up into front line positions. These old mamasans with their big bags of clothing and the shells, mortar rounds were coming in and they were no discriminators, you know, the North Koreans or the Chinese. They didn't care who they killed. This was war, and civilians would come in and they knew about roughly the time that these people would be arriving and they would invariably shell the areas they were being used.
