为什么朝鲜战争会被美国人遗忘

"During Korean war, the most dangerous thing to U.S & UN forces wasn't North koreans & Chinese communist army but South Korea's rough mountain and bad weather. South Korea's rough mountainous terrain made U.S not use any armored cars but it made a shelter & camp for enemy troops.

在朝鲜战争期间，对美国以及联合国部队来说，最危险的事情是。不是朝鲜和中国的军队，而是朝鲜崎岖的山地和恶劣的天气。
朝鲜崎岖的山地地形不仅为敌军提供了隐蔽场所，而且让美军无法使用任何装甲车辆。



In 1950, Dean Acheson-secretary of state excluded South Korea on U.S line of defense.(Misjudgement 1) China & the Soviet union thought that U.S doesn't intervene in the matters of South Korea. (Misjudgement 2) "If we (North Korean army) permeate into South Korea, People living in the whole of Korea will stat a revolt and collapse South Korea" -Kim il seong's miscalculation (North Korea's founder) (Misjudgement 3) He also said, "General MacArthur was a opinionated commander who was stubborn and misunderstood situation.

(误判1)1950年，美国国务卿艾奇逊将韩国排除在美国的防线之外。
(误判2)中国和苏联认为美国不会插手韩国事务。
(误判3)金日成认为，一旦朝鲜军队攻入韩国，韩国人民会响应朝鲜，反抗并推翻韩国政府。金日成还认为，麦克阿瑟将军是一个固执己见的指挥官，自以为是而且不会分析局势。

According to his words, Korean war has been forgotten by U.S people. Korean War is different with the Second World War wrapped as the war to protect the peace of world, Vietnam War imaged as the war annoying and disrupting U.S. he said, "Most of americans except for soldiers participated in Korean War & their family didn't want to know Korean War and hear the news about Korean War"

哈伯斯坦说，朝鲜战争已经被美国民众所遗忘。
朝鲜战争不同于第二次世界大战，美国在第二次世界大战中扮演的是维护世界和平的角色。
而越南战争则被美国人民用来抨击政府并争取自身的权利。
除了参加过朝鲜战争的老兵及其家人，大部分美国人并不想了解朝鲜战争，也不想听任何关于朝鲜战争的新闻及话题。

Tell that to the men of 2nd Infantry Division (Kunu-ri Pass) or 31st RCT (east of Chosin Reservoir).

Certainly, the Korean terrain negated the armoured and firepower heavy warfare that 1945-era American troops were so good at, but the above article looks very shallow to me.

当然，朝鲜的地形确实不利于美国军队擅长的重装甲和重火力作战，但在我看来，把原因仅仅归咎于朝鲜地形是肤浅的。

The fact that the South Koreans did not rise to welcome Kim's forces is due to (1) Rhee Syngman's land reform policies and (2) the fact that the ROK forces had wiped out (murdered, if you prefer) most of the hardcore potential revolutionaries in the two years prior to the war.

在金日成攻入韩国后，韩国人之所以没有群起响应，主要是由于：
（1）韩国总统李承晚的在韩国实施了土地改革政策。
（2）韩国国内的革命分子早在战争爆发的前两年就已经被被消灭/谋杀了。
