Jim Stevens Veteran: With 2RAR in Korea
Posted on: Mon 2 May 2022
The Korean War began in June 1950 and by the time it came to an uneasy armistice in 1953, around 17,000 Australians had fought in it; over 300 had died; thousands were wounded; and 42 are still missing unaccounted for. Jim Stevens was one of the lucky ones who survived what is often called a ‘Forgotten War.’ We re-broadcast the interview we did with Jim in 2019.
