War Agency Notes Civilian Killings in No Gun Ri Refugee Struggle
Declassified U S Air Force records and veterans accounts depict a 1950 incident at No Gun Ri where refugees were strafed while fleeing across a culvert beneath railroad tracks. Interviews with ex GIs and Korean survivors describe orders to fire on civilians, the failure of identification, and disputed death tolls ranging from hundreds to more. The piece discusses legal and historical ramifications, including postwar attempts at compensation and challenges to prosecuting war crimes decades later.
