Description

The Royal Ulster Rifles in Korea, 1950-51 by David Orr and David Truesdale is a detailed account of the Battalion's experiences during the Korean War. Following the publication of The Rifles Are There in 2005, which covered the Second World War, it was felt that a follow-up volume on the Korean conflict was overdue. The Royal Ulster Rifles were stationed at Sobraon Barracks in Colchester before being deployed to Korea, where they faced significant challenges, including extreme temperatures and a determined enemy. Despite their varied backgrounds, the Battalion coalesced into a professional unit, overcoming obstacles to achieve success. This book provides a comprehensive history of the Royal Ulster Rifles during the Korean War, shedding light on a lesser-known chapter in British military history.
