THIS POST IS TO HONOR OUR KOREAN WAR VETERANS on this 70th anniversary of the start of the Korean War. Politically inspired commentary to the contrary has no home here. First, today's ceremony:
NY POST--Trump, Melania pay respects at Korean War memorial on 70th anniversary
President Trump and first lady Melania Trump on Thursday participated in a solemn wreath-laying ceremony at the Korean War Veterans Memorial to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the start of the bloody conflict.
The president and first lady stood before the wreath, with the commander in chief at one point reaching out with his right hand to touch the flowers while speaking quietly to his wife. They then stepped back as a lone bugler played a mournful rendition of taps in honor of the 36,574 Americans killed in the fighting between North and South Korea and their allies from June 25, 1950 to July 27, 1953.
