They returned to the hometown after defeat
At the War, but no rank, they were called again,
By the chaotic times. Being selected, to beat
The Communist, They helped to sweep the bane.
For freedom for the Asia, but having no identities,
As not soldiers with rank, but the name of civvies,
They joined the dangerous works but no lenities
Of the bullets, so many no returns to be the casualties.
The mine disposal at the port before
Landing and they guided the road for attacking
Unit, but even their merits at the war
Were been kept the secret and so the sacrificial working.
Therefore, the official notice of the falling
In battle were not delivered to their families,
Seventy years has passed, when ceasing
Fire, but we should praise their honors and sacrifices.

- Comment from author about the poem: We know that the 16 Nations solders were participated in Korean War at officially but there’re many soldiers whose countries were not known. They were dead at the battle the notice of dying at the battle were not delivered to their families. They were worked at the dangerous field as civvies, and many no ranked soldiers were couldn’t return their home town. We should recollect their sacrificial works and praise their heroic merits. Because our freedom is due to their sacrifice.
