Eisenhower Says Korea Armistice Will Not End US Troop Presence
President Eisenhower told the United Defense Fund that even a Korean armistice would require US and allied troops to remain in the region for an extended period. He hailed the UN Communist agreement on repatriation of sick and wounded prisoners as encouraging and stressed continued support services like the USO. He noted a post armistice period would be trying and urged ongoing readiness for humanitarian efforts.
