by Robert L. Bateman

Compelled by the known fallacies in the
Pulitzer Prizewinning Associated Press story of
the alleged slaughter of South Korean refugees
at No Gun Ri, Major Bateman, an academic
historian and professional soldier, presents an
alternate explanation of the events through the
perspective of the soldiers and their
commanders, the 1948-50 South Korean civil war,
and the broader state of U.S. military policy
and force readiness. In a solid historical
analysis of the incident, he debunks the AP
allusion to a widespread massacre of civilians
by U.S. forces at No Gun Ri and shows how
veterans who allegedly witnessed this event and
influenced others were not even present. Told
concisely with extensive documentation from
previously overlooked sources.
