Snapshots from Korea - Kodak Alaris and Gannett Share Korean War Photos
More than 5.7 million Americans served in the Korean War from 1950 to 1953. The U.S. Department of Defense chronicled the country’s involvement through photographs, a collection of which found its way into the care of Korean War veteran Betty Perkins-Carpenter. Now, Perkins-Carpenter would like to pass on these original photos, which remain in excellent quality, to the men and women pictured in them or their families. The Democrat and Chronicle, a Gannett publication, has teamed up with Kodak Alaris to share the photos with a wide audience. Digital files scanned by Kodak Alaris have been used to create an online gallery. We invite you to browse the gallery at http://koreanwar.democratandchronicle... and -- if you have ties to the Korean War -- to keep an eye open for people or places you might recognize.
