I'm still trying to sort out where/when this incident happened. It's clear that the dead soldiers are American and that they would have been POW's (of the N. Koreans or the Chinese) that were then executed. But I can't find any reference to a group of American soldiers being executed like this. If anyone has more knowledge on this, feel free to post and I can follow it up.
