hey were there during the Inchon Invasion, the Battle of Chosin Resevoir, and at Heartbreak Ridge. They fought valiantly in a land where, 60 years later, repercussions from that “forgotten war” are still felt. They are the former soldiers from the Commonwealth who tell their stories this month in the new KET documentary In Their Own Words: Kentucky Veterans of the Korean War, premiering Sunday, Nov. 10 at 2/1 pm on KET and Monday, Nov. 11 at 9:30/8:30 pm on KET2. “There is lot of emotion when these guys are retelling their battle experiences,” said KET producer Tom Bickel, who produced Kentucky WWII Veterans: In Their Own Words in 2007. “There are some tears — and some humor.” In the program, Richard Zapata, a Marine from Louisville, tells the story of his beach landing, quaking from both the stench of diesel fuel and the nauseous action of the flat-bottom landing barge. “Someone fires off a flare and we’re going full-bore for the beach and it’s like a race,” Zapata remembered. “In the meantime, you’ve got all these shells flying over — rockets are flying, shells are coming back the other way. And it’s really hard to keep your head down and not watch it! I know, that sounds silly — but it’s like watching the movies!” Kentucky soldiers in Korea couldn’t have been more proud of a very special participant in the war effort who went by the name of Sergeant Reckless — a Thoroughbred mare who earned her stripes on the battlefield, packing supplies and munitions up the steep hills to the Marines. “Reckless was a beautiful little animal,” said Paul Hammersley of Bowling Green. Trained to avoid the

hazards of war, Reckless only had to be led up a mountain by her trainer three times before she was able to make the journey 51 times alone. “They would load the little mare up with her six or seven canisters and send her up the mountain, under heavy fire the whole time,” Hammersley said. “She knew when to duck enemy fire, she knew how to hide in little alcoves and get out of the ways of shells until she made it. “We didn’t know how she made it,” he added. “The good Lord took care of her, I guess.” In one of the program’s most serious moments, Ernest West of Wurtland, the only surviving Kentucky recipient of the Medal of Honor, stoically retells the story of how, again and again, he went back to save wounded members of his squad who’d been injured by enemy grenades on Heartbreak Ridge. “I took the point, the point man … and I hit my rifle twice with my knuckles and he crawled up to me and said, ‘What’s wrong?’ and I said, ‘They’re sitting up there waiting on us, George,” said West, who’d been chosen for the assignment that night by his lieutenant, a West Point graduate, specifically because of his abilities — and his cool head. The enemy ambushed the Americans, rolling grenades down the hill into the advancing men. West sent some of his men back to cover them and crawled ahead to retrieve the wounded — all the time returning fire himself. “I found a couple of them laying there and I carried them back, and I went back and found another one. I counted noses again and I still had one gone, so I crawled back up there and found George and said, ‘Can you walk?’ and he said, ‘Walk? I can’t even crawl!’ I said ‘all right’ and picked him up

Our heartfelt thanks to all Korean War veterans. You made a difference.

and laid him on my shoulder and started back with him.” The horrors of war can lead to close friendships — even friendships that take more than five decades to rekindle. Jack Armacost of Lexington was wounded in battle, just moments after he tried to save a wounded friend. That friend, whose foot had been sheared off at the ankle, bled out and died in Armacost’s arms. And then, wounded himself, Armacost was taken down the hill to safety in an unlikely place — beneath a tank, where the wounded would await transport to a MASH unit. There, under the tank, Armacost was cared for by the tank commander, a man he wouldn’t see again until 2007, when Hervey Hilen walked into Lexington’s VFW Post for Korean War veterans. “He asked if he could join, and I said, ‘Sure,’” said Armacost. “I started reviewing his [paperwork] and ‘I said you were covering what? And he said ‘24th Division, 19th Regiment Able, Baker, Charlie, and George Companies.’ And I said, ‘That’s what I was in!’ And he said, ‘Yeah. I know!’” After that the two became close friends, for nearly seven years until Hilen’s recent death. “He was very brave,” Armacost said of his friend. “He commanded five tanks, he was very much a taskmaster but he was very dedicated to his job. What a great guy Hervey was. What a brave man he was.” KET.org

Frontline “Who Was Lee Harvey Oswald?” KET Tuesday, Nov. 19 • 10/9 pm

hether you were profoundly changed by the events in Dallas 50 years ago, or have always lived in a world where that day loomed large in the American psyche, programs this month take a fresh look at the life and death of John Fitzgerald Kennedy. Enshrined in myth by an assassin’s bullet, Kennedy’s presidency has often defied objective appraisal. A new American Experience portrait offers a fresh assessment of the man, his accomplishments, and his unfulfilled promise. Beginning with his childhood as the privileged but sickly second son of one of America’s wealthiest men, the film explores his early career as a lackluster

congressman, his successful run for the U.S. Senate, and the presidential campaign that made him the youngest elected president in U.S. history. Next, Nova takes today’s state-of-the art forensic tools and applies them to the assassination in “Cold Case JFK.” Will forensics ever be truly foolproof, or does modern technology just give a scientific sheen to a practice that will always be more art than science? Then, in JFK: Breaking the News, travel back to Nov. 22, 1963, when the president’s motorcade was met by thousands of people in downtown Dallas. Moments later, his assassination would forever change the country — and the landscape of broadcast journalism.

Narrated by Jane Pauley, this program focuses on media coverage of the event, examining the emergence of television as a primary source of breaking news. Further explore the man at the center of the assassination in the Frontline twohour investigative biography “Who Was Lee Harvey Oswald?” At the heart of the assassination lies the puzzle of Oswald: Was he the emotionally disturbed lone gunman of the 1964 Warren Commission report? Was he, as the House Select Committee on Assassinations concluded, probably part of a conspiracy on that day in Dallas? Or was he an unwitting fall guy, the patsy, as Oswald himself claimed when he was arrested on Nov. 22, 1963? KET.org
