Not forgotten
AUBURN - History has saddled the Korean War with the unfortunate moniker, “The Forgotten War,” but for those who were there and served and lived through the conflict it is a moment in time that, even more than 50 years later, has not been forgotten.
“It is something I'll never forget,” veteran Jeremiah Burke said. “I don't think any of those who were there ever will or ever could. It is very much a part of who we are and it is something we have all carried with us ever since.”
To pay tribute to those who served and gave their lives the Korean War Veterans' Association of Cayuga County Chapter 296 has been hard at work for the past year to erect a memorial downtown along side those already paying tribute to World War I and II.
