Canberra - The Australian National Korean War Memorial
12 November
I also visited the Korean War Memorial. The Korean War began on 25 June 1950 when the forces of North Korea invaded South Korea. 17,000 Australians fought under the command of the United Nations until the armistice in 1953 . This memorial commemorates and honours those who died and served.
