Chaplain Blaisdell and Sgt Mike Strang began picking up orphaned children off the streets of Seoul after the Inchon Invasion, as many as 50 a day. They ended up caring for 1059 with the help of city leaders.

In early December 1950 the North Korean and Chinese armies were massing
on the outskirts of Seoul to re-take the city. Nearly everyone fled.
They were promised a boat at Inchon harbor, but after waiting four days
and no boat, and with all the US military planning to pull out of
Inchon the next day, they returned to Seoul desperate and praying.

Within 24 hours airlift was finally provide on C-54's dubbed the Kiddy
Car Airlift.

Price $40.00 US postage and handling.
