I was watching this special on Korea back in the good old days of having News World International, and as I told M., "So, like, we never won, did we? I mean, technically, the war is not actually OVER..."
I'm going to have to study the Korean war further & see what sort of parallels I can see.
M*A*S*H was Korea yes, although the series lasted several times as long as the war. I never watched much TV growing up (or now) but I remember growing up on M*A*S*H and still get taken back to my childhood by the macabre theme song.

Overly simplistic, I know...
