Alaska is one of the most beautiful places on our earth. Thousands of tourists visit the vast frontier yearly and many are overwhelmed by the scope of it. Some make multiple trips by ferry, by air and along the Alaskan Highway. The largest state in this union is still a raw frontier and sparsely populated and remote Indigenous people thrive in all kinds of environments, but “Chechakos” often are not prepared for challenges found in the “Great Land”. This story was written to shed some light on the subject and an obscure historical event in the Korean War.
