Patriots pay silent tribute for the soldiers from 16 nations who were killed under the U.N. flag during the 1950-53 Korea War at the War Memorial in Seoul, South Korea, 17 October 2024. The 74th memorial service is held for some of 4,500 U.S. soldiers who fell in a fierce battle between U.S. Marines and North Korean and Chinese soldiers near Jangjin Lake in North Korea's South Hamkyong Province during the winter of 1950, in the 1950-53 Korean War. The campaign eventually enabled 100,000 civilians to evacuate from the North Korean port of Hungnam to South Korea. (Photo by Yonhap/EPA)
